Feeling/being "full" All The Time



Recommended Posts

So the last couple of days I've noticed that I feel perpetually full. It's different from normal where I just felt like I am not hungry. I've even noticed that after much less food (HA!) than normal, like one ounce as opposed to two, I am having trouble not sliming. It just feels like something is sitting right under the juncture of my ribcage and not passing through and that it's impacting everything. I've had no issues drinking, taking my meds (including acid reducer), or anything else, but it just feels DIFFERENT.

Anyone else experience this?

What is sliming?

When you eat too much too fast and the body tells you that you can have it back. It's gross :(

I dunno, in my head it's different than getting sick because it doesn't seem to be accompanied by nausea, really. It's just like my body says "Hey stupid, we can't hold that much down here. Try again later." and up it comes.

Yes...I know what you mean. Had my surgery nov. 6 and I should be up to about 4 oz. no way, more like 2 small bites or back it comes. I always feel full and make myself eat something at mealtime. Drinking is no problem.

Ditto, that is exactly what it feels like. Sometimes the saliva is accompanied by food, but most of the time it is not.

Do you wear an underwire bra?

Yeah, but I've done that since puberty. I was wearing them post-op with no issues at all. It's only been in the last few days that it's felt strange.

For me it's always accompanied by what I've just eaten

      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.
