July222020 5 Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Is it possible? I'm not starving but I'm sure I could eat more i just dont! I must admit I am curious if I will get sick or feel really full if I eat a bit more. Drinking i can chugga chug! I am going on 2 months out. I've lost 33 lbs so losing, I'm just scared about whether I have stretched my pouch, if I even have one!

I've lost 33 lbs so losing, I'm just scared about whether I have stretched my pouch, if I even have one! I felt that way for the first weeks too. I wasn't achieving a feeling of "full" (but my doctor also kept me on full liquids FOREVER, so kind of hard to get full on 8 ounces of almond milk and 2 scoops of Protein powder) and really wondered if he actually did my sleeve. Then I tried my first 2.5 ounces of pureed chicken salad and suddenly I could feel it. 8 weeks out now and I can comfortably eat 3.5-4 ounces of soft food, though 4 can sometimes feel like I'm pushing it. 1 sillykitty reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At your next visit ask a ton of detailed questions about you new anatomy or request copies of the surgerical notes for your personal records. Or if you had to do a barium swallow test after surgery, request the report. Good Luck ♥️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted September 10, 2020 Yea - I felt that way at first, too. But once I started on solid foods, I could definitely tell! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
