Just had first puree food today

[ipeps]

I had my first puree food to day, and I can't believe how small the portion is and how quickly it filed me up. I had one weetabix and milk this morning and tonight I made mash and beef stew, I blended the stew. I gave myself a small portion ( three desert spoons if mash and same again with the meat) and I could only eat it half of it. I stopped eating and started to feel full 30 minutes later. is this normal. And how long before I know if the food disagrees with my stomach. Thanks

Its the weirdest feeling isnt it ! I recall boiling 2 eggs thinking I could manage them as they were small but I had the first started the 2nd only had 1 bite of the 2nd one and lets just say it didnt stay in my belly long lesson learnt !

That's totally normal. The hospital told me around 2 dessert spoons but to be honest it made me worry I was eating too much when they said that. They tell you to eat until you feel full not uncomfortable full don't force down another mouthful its not worth it.

I can't comment on how long it takes if something doesn't agree with you because I've had so many problems. I have thrown up something once which was pretty much straight away less than 10 mins. I think its a case of you will know it didn't agree. You know your own body and it will soon tell you.

Thank you both for the advice, My stomach must have liked the food as I had no problems with the food. It is strange to eat blended food but better than liquids as I have more choices.
