Michellefaina 45 Posted April 17, 2012 I am almost 2 months out and can only eat about 1/4 of them and then I am so Full!!! However there are certain things for me that I can eat more of. Maybe pintos and cheese is that one thing for you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe pintos and cheese is that one thing for you! I still don't have the full thing down pat. Im confused about it! I don't feel exactly full.. I feel like a choking sensation in my throat & I'm assuming that is when I'm full... Can someone please help!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michellefaina 45 Posted April 17, 2012 I too struggle with the whole--- what does full feel like... I'm not sure I know either! But I usually will start getting hiccups or will feel it in my throat too! When I over eat my nose runs and I get that slimy feeling in the back of my throat! I'm still a newbie!

JayhawkJess33 25 Posted April 17, 2012 I looooove the pintos n cheese! I had them twice during my mushy phase. I could eat about 1/3 of them so I stretched them for 2-3 "meals". I was about 2 weeks postop the first time I tried them and they went down easy. I think I could probably eat a little more than 1/3 of them now but maybe not 1/2 and I am 4 weeks out today. I am still figuring out the full thing too - its not a completely distinct feeling for me but I am starting to notice little things that I *think* mean that I am either full or going too fast.

tasherie 35 Posted April 17, 2012 Don't stress yourself out about it. I can eat like that too. I can eat 2 whole hard boiled eggs at one time! lol I still lose weight, not slow or fast but moderately, and I am not even working out yet. I walk, but nothing other than that. (I get the go ahead for exercise this thursday). As long as you are following plan and doing what your suppose to do you will lose weight! Your gonna drive yourself crazy over-thinking everything lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
