Post op Day 8 First day of pureed food

[BibisMom 11]

Hey everyone! Today starts my pureed stage and I started with some egg salad. It went down fine but I'm not sure what feels full at this point so I took some baby spoons in and closed up shop till I see how it goes. I did notice I hiccuped and have read that could be a soft sign that I'm done. Will full feel the same as it used to or should I just heed the hiccup warning lol? I'm supposed to do 1 1/2 oz of Protein and 1 oz of fruit of vegetable for my first meal but I don't want to push it....any advice?

It was the same feeling as before surgery for me. I would have 4oz and it felt like I ate a pizza pie

@@BibisMom I would concentrate on Protein and not so much fruit right now. 1-2 ozs is what my plan suggests. Depending on what I was eating - I could have eaten more.

I had a lapband prior to my conversion to gastric sleeve on 10/17. With the lapband I always got a hiccup alerting me it was time to stop eating. I'm still on full liquids and no "hiccups" yet with the sleeve. My friend also has a sleeve and her nose starts running when she's ull.

Full feels much worse for me now. I still eat too fast and one bite too many and I am seriously uncomfortable for at least an hour. Thankfully I have yet to barf.

Yeah that seems like a lot of food at once only 8 days out. I can only do about 2 oz at a time and I'm almost 3 weeks. Sometimes even that much and I can feel it coming back up. Maybe try 1 oz at a time and eat more times throughout the day?
