Hello everybody this week was my soft diet.. but I was scared of eating too much so I just ate a few bites of my meals.. so my question is how will I know when I'm full? Is it the same feeling than before? Thank you. I was sleeved nov the 7th. Next sunday start regular food diet.

A few bites was all I could eat for a long time. I started out with a recommendation of 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons, but some days, even that was a bit much. Even now at nearly a year, a cup is too much. And to think I used to eat a full plate of food and go back for seconds!

I can tell because my belly feels really full after a few bites, like the feeling after thanksgiving diner.

In the beginning, I could tell when I was full when I felt bubbles moving around the food in my new sleeve. During those first days post-op, it would be painful when I took just one bite too much, now it's just uncomfortable. I was eating less than 1/2 cup per meal for months and I had to retrain myself to not let my eyes overload my stomach. The old feeling of fullness has never returned. So take your time and eat slowly.
