Hi everyone!

I was sleeved earlier this week 2/05 and I’m feeling great. My doctor told me to start on puréed. The first few days it was hard to get liquid down because of gas pains. It’s better now and I had hummus as my first puréed item. Is it normal that I don’t feel full? I had about 3.2 oz of hummus. I know we are suppose to learn to feel comfortable, not full, but I guess I sort of assumed that with how small my stomach should be now, I would feel it more with that much? Will I maybe feel different from other foods or more solid foods later on? Wondering about your experiences immediately post-op.

Thanks ?

My surgery was 8 weeks ago. I do feel hunger and I do feel full when I eat, BUT hunger and fullness both feel completely different than they did before surgery. Give it some time. You are still learning what your new normal is. The way I know I'm full is I start to burp. Sometimes it's only a couple of bites in depending what I'm eating.
