To Feel Full



Recommended Posts

What does it feel like to feel full? I eat what is on my lists nothing more. Somedays I don't even Finnish what I have I front of me. I do drink my Water and am doing my twice a day Protein Drinks. But I dont feel full I just feel like I'm going thru the motions.

Any advice?

Same for me. I just eat the amount in supposed to then stop. My surgeon today told me to eat more solid foods. However I am 6 weeks out so I am allowed chicken and steak etc.

Same here, I feel as if I'm going through the motions yet I'm not really hungry as I should be but I'm forcing myself to eat every 2 hours as recommend by my nutritionist in the correct amounts. I'm keeping track of my Protein and Water intake through an excel spreadsheet so that I can show trends and statistics to my dr when I see them next.

To top it off it sounds as if my pouch is having a gran finale to a fireworks show with the amount of rumbling it's doing

I see from your profile that you're less than a week out from your surgery. Very common to not "feel" full for some time following the surgery. Everyone heals differently so the time varies. Nerves are cut during the surgery and the stretch sensors in your pouch are often (usually) affected. You're doing exactly what you should be doing and it's nothing to worry about. Everything will heal before you know it and you're pouch will start doing lots of talking - including "full". Speedydvr and I have pouches are especially gabby about all kinds of things! LOL! You're gonna love the new you!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
