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!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
