I dont think ever since i have had the surgery that i have felt "full". I always stop myself and dont eat big meals, i mean i have a protein drink for breakfast w/ an apple, a salad for lunch and usually chicken and some sort of veggie for dinner. I mean after i eat i just know that i could eat more, and sometimes i think the surgery didnt work, or my pouch is stretched somehow, i mean i was told 6oz in weight is what the pouch can hold, but then i read about people who take 2 bites and are full, is that just one of those everybody is different things, or should i be concerned that i never get that full feeling, i mean i know that i dont need to eat more but its hard to know that i could. and also my pouch doesnt seem to mind any foods, i actually wanted to see once what the whole dumping thing was about and it was recently and i ate like a cookie, and a 1/2 piece of chocolate cake and nothing. no matter what i eat i feel fine, and i dont know if that is a blessing or a curse? its like i am back on a diet that i was on before the surgery and having to stick to it cuz i can just eat anything i want and am just fine, its not fun. It would be nice to know that someone out there is the same way. Thanks" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This thread is weirdness!  It says  RECIPES FROM BARIATRIC EATING by CajunGirl...and when I open it...there is nothing there...So when I tried to reply...this post (Above) showed up. Anyone else?   Dana?  Try to repost the recipes...I think something got tangled up in the board glitch the other day. Anita

I thought it was me! :-)  Is that post you quoted anywhere else, or is whatever was in invisible ink here only...?

??? WEEEIIIIIRRRRRDDDD!

LOL Angie!   I keep going back to the post thinking it must have showed up eventually and still nothing...So I decided to hit the "reply button" and there was the "invisable ink"  post!   I have no idea where it came from...There is a name on the post. I just copied and pasted it to the thread... It is weirdness. It started two nights ago and some of yesterday afternoon.  Now it seems okay... I was having a lot of trouble navigating and posting...I just gave up!   Anita

Well, I kept thinking it was something with the setup at work... because everything was so loopy!  I had to keep refreshing page after page to see if my replies had posted... it was very strange... and so I kept coming back to this one and it was always empty and it just didn't make no sense, yo! Glad you resolved the mystery... I reposted Tracy24th post, in case she's here and waiting for some feedback ;-)

Coolio!  Good idea...I was wondering if she'd (Tracy24th) get my reply and repost herself! Hopefully she gets my message and realizes something went wrong and we are not ignoring her!   Hugs, Anita
