Feeling full?!

[sandi_022 6]

I'm 8 days post op, and I'm having trouble figuring out what feeling "full" feels like? I had a half of yogurt today and a pop ice, and I was kinda feeling bloated. Is that what it feels like? I know what the hungry feeling is cuz my stomach churns, but I'm just having trouble figuring out the full feeling. Can anyone explain?

I am siz days post op and I was not hungry for those six days. My stomac is making sounds but I attribute that to the gas. There was a post about soft indicators and one thing I notice is that when I am "full" my noise runs. Go figure!!:scared2:

For me it's pain in the chest area

Fullness for me means a feeling of having "just enough", where I could eat more if I really wanted to. But if I kept eating, I would get really uncomfortable, like a bloated heaviness. It's a very subtle line, and I have crossed it several times, but I am learning to listen to my body.

i think for me it's a pain in the chest area. i'm still on liquids but i can tell when i'm drinking too fast because i feel a pain in the chest like it's hard to get all the way down. a friend of mine (who was banded almost two years ago) has been kinda "coaching" me on the feelings of things and she says the pain in the chest is the restriction and the sign that you are filling up. lol

Hmmm okay. I'll have to learn to read my body. I haven't actually had the feeling of the pain in the chest, so I probably haven't over done myself, which is good! I just kinda stop when I don't feel hungry. Thanks for all the info :scared2:

I'm 8 days post op and for me it's like a bloated feeling, tightness in my stomach I can feel. I'm still on liquids and will remain on liquids for two more weeks so I haven't experienced alot of bloating with liquids yet. :scared2:
