Native speakers usually omit words or phrase or sentence elements, that are already known by the listener or are unnecessary to mention again in a certain situation, to convey their message faster and help the listener to recall the important information.
Speakers usually omit subject pronouns and auxiliary verbs, though they can omit main verbs if they are understood by the context.
Examples:
You all right? instead of Are you allright?
Drink?/want a drink? instead of Do you want a drink?
What next? instead of what's next?
Think so instead of I think so
I got... instead of I've got
I just instead of I've just....
