Feeling Full

[newtonya2012 6]

I am having trouble figuring out when I am full. I am just about three weeks out and I just started soft foods. I am eating about 3 onces a meal but I feel like I am overeating. I eat the 3 ounces but I keep feeling overly full like I ate to much and I get a weird feeling overly full and I have this indigestion feeling in my throat. Am I eating to fast? how do you know when you are full?

Im 5 weeks out and also was going threw the same thing. What worked for me was eating a lil bit slower and taking smaller bites. Also make sure ur not drinking anything atleast a half hour before you eat. Its hard to know when ur full im still struggling with that part. I guess as we get further along the signs will be stronger... Good luck

That full feeling in my throat or that pressure I feel in my chest is when I know I CAN NOT take another bite. I find myself eating too fast because I have a fiance and kids that do not take 30 minutes to eat their meals. They are learning to slow down and try to enjoy meal time with me.

When I was that far out I could only eat about 2 oz at a time, so 3 oz might be a little too much. I agree that you need to eat a little more slowly and try to listen to your body - it will tell you when you're full!
