Not feeling full...

[Pretty_In_Purple 112]

Today I started my purée diet. I had 1/4 cup (1 egg) scrambled egg. From what I've been told I thought I would feel very full. I didn't. What's wrong with me? :-(

I didn't feel full until I started on solids. Believe me, when you start on chicken you will feel very full very quick! I'm 5 months out and I get stuffed on a single chicken wing!

Also, your tummy is probably still a little numb from the surgery. Just stick to your prescribed food volume and you'll be fine!

I have the same feeling. I am not full but I am not hungry so I just stop eating. I am at the mech soft diet.

One egg is not "full" for you, but don't go hog wild and try to see how much it takes to be full. It is a gradual learning process and over time through trial and error you will learn how much capacity your sleeve has. Over eating can cause complications and is really uncomfortable. I also think your body needs to relearn what "full" means. Just keep following your surgeons instructions and all will be well I promise!
