Different people have different full signals. Some hiccup, some sneeze, some sigh.I believe it has something to do with pressure either on one of the nerves or possibly the diaphragm. Learning to recognise your signal so that you don't overeat can help save you a lot of discomfort.

Very true mine was my nose would run, if I start to hiccup I have eatten too much and will more than likely be sick very soon. I think learning these signs really helped my success in the band.

I get the hiccup and runny nose, sometimes by then it is too late and I am gonna be sick, but sometimes it just means stop now!

irritation of the nerves of the diaphragm...any clue to stop eating is a good clue!

Runny nose here too. I just realised I haven't had one in months. Plus I've been about to burp again, something I haven't been able to do for about 2 years. My band's been loose so maybe it's time to see my dr again, just to check in.

I sneeze too, but only once. I generally sneeze in two's, so if we are eating and I sneeze once, my hubby looks over and says "Oops! Guess you are done" LOL If I drink something cold too quickly or too big of a gulp I will get hiccups. Isn't it wonderful!! :-)

      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.
