Full Feeling?

[ckg123 7]

How do you know when you are full? What is it like? 4 days out!!

[bean406 15]

I'm 10 weeks out and still trying to figure this out!! I know for the first month or so I barely ate anything and still did my Protein Shakes as much as I could remember to do. I took the advised 20-30 min to eat a meal and basically just stopped before I felt full because I wanted to make sure NOT to overdue it. Within 15 minutes or so after a meal I would have a sense of being satisfied but never had that "oh crap I ate too much" stuffed feeling. I think everyone is probably a little different in this area. Not sure how helpful any of that was, lol.

It's hard to tell in the beginning, I'm a month out and I still can't tell :/ I think your supposed to eat slow, but I eat fast, which makes me full quicker I think :/

I'm three months out and have never had just a full feeling. Either I stop before I am full or I eat too much and am miserable. I go by quantity of food eaten rather than any feeling and eyeball the amount I should eat. I have learned to stop before I'm miserable, after I've eaten a very small portion.

I hate my lifestyle sometimes. I'm a hairdresser and I never take breaks or lunch. So I don't end up eating till I'm starving! And then I'm rushing to eat just to get something in and I don't usually eat enough which means I'm hungry again too soon. OR I wait till I get home and eat too much too fast because I'm dying of hunger. I have a hard time eating slowly because I'm so used to be on the go and don't have the patience. Moral of this story is... I actually hate eating. Ha!

I gave a very busy life style as well! I don't know if this will work for you, but I make a Protein Shake in the morning and bring it with me to work. You can put it in a Thermos bottle and drink it during the day at work. I try to put 30-40 grams of Protein in it, so I know the bulk of my protein needs are met! Good luck!

It takes a while to figure it out. Personally I get this feeling towards the middle of my chest. I stop eating when I get that. You will defintely know when you have eaten to much. The important thing is to make sure you pace yourself and eat slow.

I have a really weird effect when I'm full, I've been on mashed foods for three days and when I pass the quarter cup mark my nose starts running and I sneeze. Very odd. anyone else have this weirdness?

Runny nose and hiccups, here. If I overdo it, a sense of fullness in my chest. If I really overdo it, I get lightheaded and dizzy and will shortly have to toss that last bite or two up. Certain foods like tortilla, Pasta, bread and rice can take me from okay to serious discomfort in just one extra bite, so be careful to listen to your body.

Good to know I'm not on my own in this! I am still trying to work out my signals, and how much to chew, how slow to eat etc thanks for the helpful comment.

I try to eyeball my food because I know my sleeve holds around 6 ounces of liquid and 3 ounces of solids. So if I eat scrambled eggs for Breakfast I cook only one egg and add cheese and its the perfect amount. I am going to be getting a scale to weigh my meat. I was and sometimes still over eat. I am hoping the scale helps me eyeball how much to eat better.
