Are you measuring your servings? How big are they? What size spoon are you using?

[dee2rod 12]

I use small spoon... they never told me to measure. Dietician said eat Protein first...but not very much fits. I chew chew chew but dont get to much in. Im worried

I'm in the same boat. I get full very quick and at times I get mad because I feel like I was just getting into eating this, and bamn, no more hunger signals start coming from the sleeve. On the bright side I don't spend a lot of money on food. When I used to eat like crazy I would spend so much money at fast food places it was crazy sometimes 300 in a month for 2 people. Now I don't even care about fast food and it just doesn't make sense to spend money on something I can't really eat. So far I'm always able to eat a whole pouch of Starkist light tuna salad in a 100 calorie pack all the time. Other than that its always half of anything else bigger. A few days back I made home made cheeseburgers for me, and the wife ,we both didn't get much down . Its nerve wrecking and a life saver. I can never see me over eating or becoming that crazy over food again.

I was sleeved on July 25. My wife, who was sleeved over a year ago, says I am eating too fast. I think she is right, I have slowed down and the problem with filling up so fast has gotten better. Eating quickly is a difficult habit to break because you have done it for so long. You might slow down, chew 30 times for each bite and put down fork between bites.

Mostly, I can get about 4 or 5 bites in before I am full. I have noticed that some days I can get more in but not much. I also think I eat too fast. That is one habit that is really hard to break. And when I chew my food really well, it kind of makes me nauseous.

Thanks guys for the feed back. I may be eating to fast. Old habits are hard to break.:/

I would love to have a combination #5 with white rice and extra garlic sauce and egg roll and stuff it lol

I think it is part of the plan.I have a new habit. I like to knit 8" squares for blankets orphans in South africa and so i take a tiny bite chew well and knit two rows, then time for my next bite. i could not believe how much easier it was to eat a full meal ( half a cup). no problems, not burps, not pressure--and i hate the pressure. Still felt full at the end but a comfortable easy onset full. I expect to be making a ton of squares.
