Not getting the "full" feeling



Recommended Posts

Hi! I'm 2 weeks post op and I don't feel full, I normally know when I'm done drinking fluids when I start to burp, but now that I'm allowed to have 1/3 cup of thin oatmeal, yogurt, cream of wheat I haven't experienced the "full" feeling. I was wondering if that will happen later on. Thanks for taking the time to read this (:

I know how u feel. I'm 18 days post op and I'm hungry all the time. I think I'm so used to that "so full I'm about to pop" feeling that just having something in my stomach seems empty to me. Idk I just had a Protein Shake 25g with a whole mango, whole pear and a cup of strawberries and I still feel hungry. I'm just gonna go to bed cuz I keep getting up and going to the kitchen and I don't wanna eat anything unhealthy like those Doritos that are calling my name :-(

      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.
