So I'm in day 3 of my soft foods and every time I eat I'm stuffed. I'm only eating about 3 spoonfuls but It seems as if I skip over the satisfied feeling and Go straight stuffed. Am I doing something wrong any suggestions?

I'm 3 weeks post op sleeve. And that is still normal for me. I go str8 to stuff after 3 or 4 spoon fulls. Try waiting longer in BTW spoonful.

I had to weigh my foods at that point. I was great with 2 oz and anything more was too much. I still weigh food, it is easier than dealing with that stuffed up to my esophagus feeling.

I used a baby spoon when I started pureed foods. Two to three spoonfuls was all I could eat on day three. When I was on soft foods, day three (two weeks later), I still used the baby spoon and was only able to get in 4 or 5 bites.

It's normal.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
