I can't tell for the life of me when my pouch is full. I'm still on Clear liquids. Is it that liquids run right through? I've.tried pushing it a little by drinking like 1/4 c. Of Water at a time just to test my boundaries. It didn't feel any different.than a regular drink. I have not.vomited at all since surgery (not saying I want to) I guess I'm just afraid I'm over doing it and not realizing it. What am I looking for?

Dont push it. If you are still on liquids, you wont really know when you are full until your diet advances. Oh boy, you will know then! Take it easy, and dont rush ;)

Same here. My surgery was July 11 and I am on full liquids until Sun. I also do not have the "full" feeling after I eat. I feel the same before, during and after I eat; not hungry. I'm rarely ever hungry. Getting a little bored with my cream Soups too. I think once we start eating "real" foods, we will have that full feeling more often. Maybe it's because we're still recovering...? Good luck on your new journey!

All I ever feel is like I've had a bad stomach flu.

      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.
