Hate eating

[katsmeow 70]

Sometimes I hate eating. I keep eating to much and getting sick. It's like not worth eating.

Are you measuring your food? Just take 1 bite at a time. 1 bite, then relax. Let it digest. Be patient with your body. How long ago was your surgery?

I do at times too, but I think most of the problem is I don't get a full sensation.

When was your surgery?

I understand I am 17 days out and having trouble knowing when I am full. Seems I go from empty to overfull in less

than a bite. It has caused a few episodes of pain or tossing my Cookies. (note there were no actual cookies).

I have to learn to eat slower. Also twice I forget and used a straw and drank fluids, all of which led to the above.

I had my surgery November 14th. So what should be the measurements?

At this stage you should be 5 to 6 weeks out and on a pureed diet/soft foods. You should be measuring your food and be consuming 3 - 4 ounce increments in each sitting. I had surgery 4 months ago and I can only eat 2 ounces in each sitting, but I eat 4 - 5 times a day and smaller portions. I was sick and regurgitating all the time, because I was getting to full at 3 - 4 ounces of food. And what also helps me is that I eat with a baby spoon and fork so I know I'm not consuming to much at a time. It's just a lifestyle change you will get use to it, and just try to eat slow and maybe start at 2 ounces, your body will let you know when you can consume more or need to back off. It gets better:)

I have said this many times this week. It seems my capacity is different each time and it just takes that one bite to ruin it..I'm happier without food than with at this point.
