Feeling Really Tight!



Recommended Posts

So this morning I had to rush out the door to get to work and didn't have time for Breakfast. Then I went and got lunch (shredded chicken taco ish salad)....I took two bites and was too full...almost felt like I was stuck but not quite. I figured it was just because it was my first meal of the day, and I'm normally tight in the mornings. Then a few hours later I was starving so I took a few more bites...same feeling! Then I took the dogs for a walk, came back home, ate dinner (tried to) same thing again! I have had 2 fills, my second one was about a month ago. I've never felt this tight all day long before...my dr said its not a slip...so what could it be?? Also I've felt queasy all day too. Hmmm.

It was probably the texture of the chicken. It can cause problems.

I've started doing the same thing and wonder if I am too tight or if stress is whats causing it. I have an appt today so hopefully I will get some answers.

Today wasn't nearly as bad! Although I didn't make the best choices :/

Your thoughts might be right in bad choices, however I recently realized that I was tight when I didn't get enough WATER! I am tight in the AM, my day starts around 10, but that first meal is about 2. About 3 weeks ago I had a couple of days when I couldn't eat without discomfort. When I took a look at what I'd had, the Water was very short. Temps and impending stroms make me tight as well. Stress is a big one for me as well.

      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.
