 I feel like all of a sudden I can eat a little more. Like 1 or 2 more bites!! Is this normal? Did I stretch my sleeve put from drinking water too fast? I'm scared. I don't want to stretch myself out at all!!!!

Help!!

I hope so. I am really concerned. I feel like I want to eat more now and I can drink water so close after eating now!!

How much are you eating at a time?  And what?  For a very long time I couldn't tell if I was full, so in my crazy head with fear of a leak, I ate the minimum of everything.

I ate a 1/4 of everything.  Water was hard!  Protein was so so....

I only eat protein. I have an egg for breakfast some tuna salad for lunch with cucumbers. Then I have a half a turkey burger for dinner. I pretty much know when I'm full. But latelyit doesn't seem enough. Like 1 or 2 more bites seems right now?

Heck no! you can't stretch your sleeve so early! like mom78 said.. the swelling has gone down from surgery.

There is only one success--to be able to spend your life in your own way.

 I had my surgery on 4/26/12, I also find I have been able to hold more down but, I have been able to hold more liquid than I thought since the start. I get in over a 100 grams of protein most days and more than 64 oz of water. I see my doc tomorrow, I am going to raise these questions and bring some of my myfitnesspal printouts with me to make sure I am doing the right thing.

Wow! That is a lot!! I would love to hear what he says!! I am barely getting to 64 ounces of water a day - it's still really hard - but I have been trying to drink a LOT more since the first 6 weeks!!

Thanks for your response!!
