Anybody find that they can eat a little more than they thought. I read about people only being able to eat 2oz-4oz and I find a can eat about a little less than a cup before I feel full. I was sleeved May 31st. I know everyone's pouch is different but please tell me it's not just me and I'm not doing anything wrong here.

Ok that cools my mind a bit I read about people only getting 2-4 oz and i starting wondering if I screwed something up.

I could eat more when I was on liquid and purees The minute I switched to solid regular food that stopped. I often can barely get down 1to2 oz. of Protein and only about 1/2 cup of anything with substance. Some days are different then others for me. Today I can't seem to get much of anything before I feel full and is a challenge to eat enough, but I just listen to my body and adjust what I eat. Today more Soup and Protein Shakes and tomorrow maybe meat will feel good. You're not to far out so be patient sometimes what you can eat changes overnight.

I am on the same exact boat. I feel like I've been able to eat more than what is recommended. And it worries me to think that this may not work for me because i have felt normal from the day I walked out the hospital, hardly any pain I get hungry, I already had a hard time getting enough Water in. I need serious help.

Another thing I have noticed it depends on what it is that fills me faster.

I am 4 wks out, had at least 2 oz of beef filet, 1 crab leg and half an ear of corn for dinner tonight and was not uncomfortable at all. Definitely more room in my sleeve than expected.

Sleeved Jun 3--I can usually manage 3/4 cup of Soup before feeling full. I am finding that liquids are much easier to get in now---I am able to drink rather than sip.
