How to know when your pouch is full enough....



Recommended Posts

I dont know how to tell that I've eaten enough or if I haven't. I also have a thirst urge I have learned to drink slower because air bubbles HURT! I have a hard time with Protein bcuz it makes me want to vomit. But I'm try I get about 15-30 but they said it would take a couple of days to get there. But I feel I can get quite a bit in so my question is what does it feel like to be full, I don't want to over eat...

Just eat slowly and your sleeve will let you know when it's enough, and trust me one or two spoonfuls more is TOO much and you will be miserable and in pain.

I am only 4 days post op but i have learned already if i eat to much my chest hurts so bad that i can't breathe and have to lie down. You will eventually know how many bites or how much it will take. I also still have 1 oz cups and i fill it up and eat slowly. I am usually good by the time i finish it. Good luck

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
