I also have mixed stomach signals..I had my surgery in March, struggled with getting off the puree diet, I either feel super full right away but then an hour later my stomach hurts so bad like an actual hunger pain, then I'll eat a snack and the cycle starts all over again. I at times would rather not eat because it hurts, I am tolerating a lot more foods now but in serious moderation. No more cheese, or rice! those kill me! I'm glad summer is here because I have been living off watermelon, it actually feels the best on my stomach. I am being patient, Ive heard the first year isn't the best.
