ok so if this is what full feels like it sucks......



Recommended Posts

I'm still fighting with the idea of when I am full. I ate lunch and everything went down fine, I didn't feel full but usually I don't. I ate dinner tonight and now I feel this terrible lump. I'm not throwing up and I definitely refuse to eat any more so is this full? it sucks if it is. I am making these lovely sounds coming up from my throat. I think I might have like a partial stuck. is that possible? some things I eat and it goes down like nothing and I feel hungry real soon after and other times I eat and i get this lump that stays with me for a while. Please tell me your thoughts. I have another fill coming up and I'm not sure if I need one or not. some foods yes....others no.... I can still eat 2-3 cups at each meal. Also I haven't lost any weight in over a month. I am still on the treadmill for 30-60 minutes a day. I am eating the way I am supposed to I think..... Breakfast I have either 2 eggs or yogurt with fresh fruit and granola added. for lunch today I ate (banded wende's) meatball meal in the crockpot with green beans.--went down like nothing. for dinner tonight was chicken breast....couldn't finish the 3rd bite. Last night was a small steak...same thing I couldnt finish it. please give me your thoughts....even meal ideas if you want. thanks

It sounds almost like you might be getting stuck on the dry meats, rather than experiencing "fullness". I know a lot of people have to give up chicken and steak or find ways to make it very tender. I've never been stuck, but I've heard people describe the sensation like a painful lump in the upper chest.

Sometimes I eat too much and feel uncomfortably full, but I wouldn't call it a lump feeling. More gassy, ugh, why did I do that? feeling.

I don't know if this is at all helpful.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
