    Default am i able to eat to much

    I just last week had my sleeve done and just started on full liquids. I had a bowl of soup all blended up no chunks and didn't realize how much I ate around 18 16oz over 15 min. from what I see that's way to much I think I should be throwing up and uncomfortable at the least. I feel full but not overly full and content .should I be worried?

    You were eating a slider food. It doesn't stick around for long so you were able to add more. When you start eating solid food you will definitely see and feel the difference. As long as you were within your caloric limit for the day you were fine.

    Well that's a relief and a half. I never heard of such a thing but it makes sense. I hope others agree. Thanks

    What you have experienced is no different the drinking. You see all you were doing is drinking your soup off of a spoon. Being blended it is a full liquid. I was able to drink 16 ounces of warm liquids easily my first and second week after surgery. You will find things are completely different when you start chewing real food.

    Definitely what they said, a slider food. When I went to soft I ate a half cup of cottage cheese (granted it took me forever) without realizing it but it didn't fill me up. I was worried. Anything like yogurt, protein shakes etc, unless I gulp it, goes down easy. Wait til you try your first solid like tuna, chicken, you'll know right away! For me it is a full feeling up to my throat and back pain (weird, I know) but I've learned to stop for a while to see how I feel. The amounts I eat are silly right now.
