Dmog74 2 Posted March 6, 2015 Has anyone not felt much restriction with liquids or yogurt? I was sleeved 11 days ago and I have no problems with drinking 64 ounces a day in addition to eating a full yogurt over 15 minutes. My weight loss has been good ...16lbs in 11 days. I just worry that maybe I've stretched my sleeve or something is wrong with it???? Will I feel the restriction when I start eating soft foods? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elode 8,093 Posted March 6, 2015 There's nothing wrong, you didn't stretch anything. Wait until you eat real food.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beachgurl84 456 Posted March 6, 2015 I can eat a whole container of yogurt no problem, but I struggle to eat more than a few ounces of meat or anything more solid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dmog74 2 Posted March 6, 2015 Thanks so much guys. I was starting to feel there's something wrong even though I saw the swallow study and saw how small my new stomach is! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alwaysvegas 702 Posted March 6, 2015 shakes, pudding, and liquids all went down easily just after surgery. I was easily drinking over 100 oz of liquids a day after the first week. I also thought something was wrong, like my sleeve was too big or it was leaking. But once I started on purees...HUGE difference. I felt fuller faster and stayed fuller longer. I found every phase to be increasingly satisfying and of course great for letting the sleeve heal. The phases are also great to become familiar with eating with a small tummy. The puree phase is where you will see what it's like if you "overdo" it a bit. Great learning curve there! Best of luck on your journey! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCP 619 Posted March 8, 2015 The restriction kicks in with food. And it really does kick in big time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
