Feeling full 24/7 Can't Eat :(



Recommended Posts

Today makes 2 weeks to the day that I was sleeved. My post-op was Thursday and dr said everything looked great. So far down 25lbs! I could move on to Soft Diet Phase yesterday but when I try to, two bites later I feel as if I'm so full with food up to my throat. Even drinking my Protein shots (only 2.9 oz) I can only drink 1/2 shot at a time. On top of that my stomach sounds like a thunder storm is going on in there. I'm assuming gas :/ Anyone have this issue? If so how did u fix it?

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

That's all very normal. I felt similar but now 4weeks out and I'm able to more. Just be patient and focus on ur Protein Drinks and Water. The rest will follow. At 3 weeks you should feel a difference. Just take it little by little. Good luck

Oh poor you :( I am only 5 days post op but my tummy makes the same sound I have been told it's lack of fibre try a fibre supplement , well done on your weight loss though .. Have you tried a Protein supplement (not a shake but like a powder ) you can sprinkle over the food you do eat or a tablet form so at least you are getting that ?

Sorry if this advice isn't helpful but good luck and I hope things improve for 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?
