Territravel 217 Posted August 21, 2012 Yes, it's true. 9 weeks post op and can only eat 1/2 cup or so at a time. 1 DebiSue reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Butterthebean 8,146 Posted August 21, 2012 Sounds like you have a very tight sleeve. There may still be some inflammation in there...perfectly normal though. As long as you can eat that much and not be in pain, I see no problem. Your capacity will increase slightly over time. 1 DebiSue reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MegInNOLA 531 Posted August 22, 2012 Be happy for a restrictive sleeve. I definitely had/have one, and while it is a pesky thing when I want to enjoy more food, it definitely keeps me on the straight and narrow! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
texassky 84 Posted August 22, 2012 Hi, I am 3.5 weeks out, I can eat about 1/2 cup of Soup, but any soft food I have tried I can only eat about 3 small bites before I feel very full! So much so I have been avoiding anything other than liquids, I'm glad my sleeve is restrictive, but that feeling of fullness is very uncomfortable! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
