Oops Have you done this

S, Yep, that "Learning Curve" can be a biotche. Eventually it’s less of an issue. As long as it’s liquid, I can almost gulp down 16 ozs now-a-days. Really not much different than my pre-op self. "Healed" is a little loose on the time line Because everyone heals at a different speed. Typically, the more conservative Bariatric Programs don’t advance their patients to Crispy Veggies and "Everything" until 18^th week. They typically estimate the post-surgical swelling in the pouch To hang around through the 5^th month. It’s around then (the 5^th to 6^th month) That many find their pouch "loosening up" And that capacity of how much can be eaten at once increases. That’s why it’s important to use that first 6 months to set up new habits So you’re not pushing the limits the whole time… At around 6months, those "limits" slack off a bit And you’re left with habit and choices. Follow? As far as "Forgetting?" I did that several times early on… grabbed a bite of something sweet without even thinking- Or took a swig of Dr. Pepper once…. Like I had drank a Prune Juice / Drain-O ****tail! Still at 4 years post-op, if I eat or drink too fast? Even when it all goes down and stays down fine I will "gurgle" loud enough to cause the dog to bark. 10 weeks? You’re just coming up on the Easy part! Best Wishes- Dx
