JeffN 106 Posted October 6, 2017 Your status says Pre-op so are you asking if 4oz of food does not fill your up now or after you had surgery? Before surgery your stomach is the size of a football after surgery it will be the size of an egg 6oz. Also, you need to know what filled up feels like. It will no longer be in your stomach but in your chest around your breastplate. What eating stage are you at and how long ago did you have your surgery?

GassyGurl 428 Posted October 6, 2017 My plan allowed purees starting on day 3. What does your plan look like for you? I noticed on day 4, I ate 1 bite of yogurt. Now, at 8 weeks I can eat 4oz of puree, but don't feel full unless I'm eating dense Protein like meat. To me, full feels gross. Even if you can eat more, stick to the amount prescribed and you will be fine. Sent from my XT1254 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JeffN 106 Posted October 6, 2017 I was told I would be in for a treat once I was on solids. I have one more week of soft foods then solids here I come. I am taking this time to learn how to chew food. My advisor told me the key to any diet going forward is to chew and when you think you have chewed enough chew some more. My wife likes my new eating habits because I no longer rush her by eating and finishing before her. She had to wait for me to finish. 1 CJ Sunshine reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
