Hi All, I am six weeks out and doing well. I don't feel hungry at all. When I sit down to eat I go from feeling nothing to feeling full sometimes overly so but not to the point where I get sick. My question is they say to eat until you are satisfied but if you don't get hungry and are eating because it is time what does satisfied mean? Some meals I get the full feeling a lot quicker then others which can be so confusing.

It depends a lot on what you eat. If you are eating mostly dense Protein, you will feel full quicker and stay full longer. When you eat "slider" foods, you will notice that you can eat much more.

It takes a while to figure out how to tell when you have reached the point of being satisfied. Journaling what you eat can really help.

I'm only 2 weeks out, but I already am journaling in details. I'm also writing in any reactions or feelings I have after eating. felt overly full, felt uncomfortable, felt good, etc.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
