Hi guys I'm new here and absolutely love this site! I was sleeved on april 14th so I'm about 3 and a half weeks post op on the puree stage now. Down 25 lbs. I'm a little worried because sometimes I don't get that full "feeling" with certain foods and get super full real quick with other foods. Depending on what I'm eating I can definitely put in more than 2 oz. It scares me because I'm still learning to be aware of what and how much I eat. Is this normal though, not "feeling" full with some foods? Thanks!

I had the surgery April 22 and really have yet to feel "full". I stop eating because I feel I should, not because I feel I have to. No hunger, but no real signs of full.

I just started purée, not sure if this will change once I get soft food

I'm eating 400-650 calories per day...which seems high.

I wish I had the infamous sneeze, hiccup or burp that others seem to get

Try thicker foods like refried Beans. Also the drinking rule is very pertinent on whether you feel full or not. But yes, I'm 3 months out and I've learned which foods will keep me full longer, etc

I get the hiccups, loud ones too! But sometimes I feel like it takes a while and more than 2 oz to get there. I don't intentionally eat til the hiccups come, like I said still learning the "you should stop eating now" mindset. Slowly getting there :/

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
