Oh dear, I hadn't noticed that....
It's probably because I'm only just on soft foods and still new to it all. I think I'll start counting calories, protein, etc. again so I know I'm getting it right. It's not easy getting used to the different feelings, i.e the difference between hunger, head hunger and just habit.....
Thanks for pointing this out!
The first few months with your sleeve are totally different , the triggers to stop eating changed (for me) from a full feeling to a feeling when I'm nearly finished my meal I just don't want to eat it anymore, it's a strange feeling lol to go from really liking your meal your eating in front of you too when you know your finished and have now had enough
I never hardly get a full feeling now just a feeling of that's it I'm done and not interested in that meal no more. I don't feel hungry most days their has been a few times of emptiness but not hunger. But I could still easily eat loads of rubbish as it slips down more easily as a packet of crisps or biscuit crumbles into nothing and that's where will power comes in lol. Also my provider told me I have to wait one hour after a meal and 30 mins before to drink so it's difficult to get in 4 or 5 small meals. It would be interesting to see if other long term sleevers also had their triggers to stop eating change like I have
I hated the feeling of fullness as i sometimes had that one mouthful too much and felt sick for a while which I hated. Your doing great with what your doing
your on soft stage now just wait till your eating steak lol x
