Me too but never put two and two together. I'm learning so much even though I'm out 7 months.

Nope that is your body telling you to stop eating.....It is a signal for you...Even before you had surgery your body gave you signals that you ate enough but we ignored them because of our relationship with food....

Some people take a deep breath. Others fold their arms. Some say no I'll let this settle before I eat more.....

After you start sneezing, or have a runny nose...Put your fork down and listen to your sleeve. i wait a few minutes to see how the food is feeling in there. Sometimes I eat more and sometimes I push the plate away.....I have the same signals...A lot of us do!

My nose ran also for about a year after surgery (never a problem before surgery, and stopped about a year after). I am now three years out. Interesting what RJ posted about it being a "stop eating" signal. I never connected the runny nose as being a signal, but sadly it's no longer a signal for me 'cuz it doesn't happen any more. But one body signal that has been consistant and continues to be is hiccups. If I have consumed more than my sleeve wants, I know it is time to stop if I get hiccups.

its because the vagus nerve at the top of the stomach is irritated. this leads to runny nose, sneezing and/or hiccuping.

      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.
