I had my surgery 12/8/15, and surprisingly doing really good. My incision where the stomach was token out of still give me pain but for the most part I'm doing really good. I just started going to the gym this Friday and just walking on the tread meal until the weight instructor tells me different. I'm not sure if I lost anymore wait since my last appointment with my doctor so I'm hoping that when I get on the scale it's not the same has 3 weeks ago or more. food Wise someday a I'm really hungry and somedays I'm not. I can fully eat all my soft food, chicken, fish, fat free yogurt, cheese, tuna, oatmeal, etc... with no problems and that makes me feel so weird cause I hear a lot of people that was almost 4 weeks post-op still stuck on Soups. I did something really bad today and I had a smoothie that had a lot of sugar in it and I know that it's really really bad but it was so good and I had a lot so now I'm really full and kinda uncomfortable. I'm still eating way to fast and not chewing enough and when I eat it I can feel in traveling to my stomach. I really need to wrap my head around my new sleeve and stomach. I got a baby spoon and fork to help me out. tell me what going on with my fellow 3-4 weeks post-op sleeve?

I feel so much better hearing this, I really want to thank you. i don't feel so weird now, because I started my soft foods at 16 post-op and keep asking myself am I moving to fast. I felt like maybe my surgery didn't work at all cause I would feel hungry. you don't know how much this helps me ????????

yeah I do. like yesterday was a very bad day for me, so I definitely know what you mean.

so today me and my boyfriend made some fruit smoothie with pineapples, strawberries and blueberries, peaches, the juice from the pineapples and fat free sherbet. Is ok to drink something like this and I drank a lot and I really full. Is this ok ? someone help

I have not warp my head around my new sleeve and it sometimes stress me out cause I'm alway question my self not and so afraid to mess up this opportunity that I have been blessed to have. I thank you guys so much for your positive advice it really helps ladies

no not at all. question and I should know that's why is it not ok for use to have a lot of sugar, is it just cause of the dumping ?

your right, in this stage I should only be eating soft foods and fish and chicken.

I have a question for all the first timer, was it easier for you guys to hold down your food and what stage where you eating soft food and did it take a lot to still full you up ???

so I'm 2 weeks going on 3 weeks post op, and I'm not feeling full. I'm still on cream soups and jello and next week I started my soft foods. For example today for breakfast I had 3 tablespoons of Greek yogurt and a protein shake, then for lunch I had jello and another protein shake, and then went to Panera and had broccoli cheddar soup in a bowl size to go and I ate the whole thing and was still kinda hungry. Is this normal , will this change once I start eating my soft foods ? I hope some one that's been through can give me some get advice cause I'm kinda worried

Thank you both for the good advice, this helped me out a lot cause I was starting to think something was wrong with me
