I am also 2 weeks post and today was my first semi normal meal. Purée if you call that normal. I had broiled salmon for dinner. Only eating approx. 1oz. I do not get the full feeling until about 15 mins after I eat. But, I am do afraid of vomiting I steer away from being full. By the way the salmon tasted heavenly.

I was about 3 weeks out when the feeling of full hit. at 11 weeks out now, I get hungry from time to time, but mostly have to remind myself to eat. your stomach is still healing and when the nerves come back, you will know it. :-)

Same here. Infact I posted last night askin the exact same thing! I feel hungry a tiny bit late afternoon. But I never feel full. I watch very closely how much I eat at a time. But I'm truly not Full.

I was reminded the nerves in our pouch are not awake for several weeks.

I'm seven weeks out and have still never felt full or that I've over eaten. No pressure, no pain. It's scary. I have to really watch my portions. Good thing is that a) after one bite I'm nauseous so I don't feel like over eating B) I am never really hungry... Just experience low blood sugar

Fullness in.the beginning feels like a pressure in your ribcage or a slught twinge there. You wont feel filled up in your belly for a few months

I am three months post op and at first I felt pressure when I was full. Now I get sorta hungry and its not really full but the hunger goes away. If I eat a spoonful more than my portion I am very nauseous, to the point I dry heave, sometimes vomit. I struggle with the mental adjustment of not eating the last bite or thinking the portion is so small. So right now I am working on recognizing the absence of hunger and leaving the rest when that comes, no more cleaning your plate! Lol

I have just been eating shrimp and occasionally fish, I can't do chicken or tuna or eggs =\ I'm 3 weeks out and wonder if 4 pieces really well chewed is too much. I don't get a full feeling or vomit. Is this normal?

You're just fine girlfriend, it's not too much, just focus on how fast you eat, remember how macerated your food gets once you chew it 30 times and swallow, your pouch can handle it, nerve endings don't wake up fully for a few months after surgery, then you'll feel full and hungry, it just takes time for your body to get over the shock.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
