Ok so I know some sleevers get hungry and I am thinking I am one! I feel so bad about this! I feel like I eat too much as well! Today I had a few bites of a sub sandwhich for lunch (about 2inches) then a little natures own bar and 2 more inches of sub for dinner! Is this too much? I also had a SF Carn Inst Bfast! Even with all of that I feel hungry! Like I feel restriction when I eat, but IDK if I am just not understanding all of this new stomach stuff! Like is there any way my new stomach has stretched already? Thats my biggest fear! (I am 1 month post op)

Thank you ladies! I need to up my protein majorly! Also I need to move more. I am 4weeks out now, so I can start working out now. I am getting enough calories a day I try to stay bw 600-800 cals a day. Where should I be with carbs??

Ok I am almost 4 weeks post op. And since the day i came home from the hospital I have only lost 18lbs! I was 205 when I came home and now I am 187! I just feel like this isn't enough weight. I am on softs and basically just snack on multigrain crackers with cheese, and eat soft foods like chicken and potatoes. I dont overeat! I have made the mistake of eating too much a few times and learned I need to slow it down! I just dont know if its normal I have hit a stall and only like 2lbs in 1.5weeks!

Thank you! Yall are right I am def going to keep it to easier simple foods! I get too paranoid all of the time that Im going to mess my stomach up! Which is the last thing I want to do! Im just really worried bc I used to have like a pain in my stomach and a constant feeling but now I just feel nothing! I do have Prilosec that I take as needed!

Ok I was sleeved 2 weeks ago so I just started pureeds. I had 2 chicken nuggets today for lunch and a few bites of pot roast for dinner. Now, my stomach has a different feeling. Kinda of like an empty type of feeling. Is this normal. I am super paranoid about my stomach being messed up! Does anyone know what it actually takes to stretch your sleeve? I did have a little mac n cheese last night too and it didnt bother me! But am I eating too much?

Thank you all you all are very encouraging! I barely ate any of it and I still lost weight! Today I had one pureed meal and didnt eat much of it at all! I go on full pureed tomorrow! I had a little bit of mac n cheese pureed and my stomach was ok with that! I dont want to get in that habit though, bc mac n cheese isnt what I need nor want to eat! It is right that I will beat this food addiction! No food is worth going back to where I was! I got this band for a reason and I do not need to mess it up!

Ok Im going to be honest and `say I am 13 days post op and still on full liquids! I have ONLY done liquids nothing else, but today I had a little bit of cheese and a few bites of soft soft garlic bread. ( I ended up making myself throw up the garlic bread bc I felt so guilty) But is my stomach ruined now? I feel so guilty and awful for doing this and know I will NEVER EVER cheat on my diet now! I just need to know has anyone slipped once and were you ok?

I feel the same im 8 days out and can drink all day! And eat 1/2 a cup of creamy soup without acheing! I am scared my sleeve isnt right! lol

Ok, i had the sleeve 8 days ago! I am doing ok on liquids, I found 2 creamier soups that have filled me up but today I actually ate like half a cup of creamy soup. To me that seems like too much! And hours later at dinner time I am hungry! Is hunger normal? Am I overeating? Im just SO scared the surgery isnt going to work and Ill always be hungry!
