Whats your "full" signal?



Recommended Posts

I'm a little over 3 weeks post op and have just started on soft foods in the last few days. I'm beginning to familiarize myself with my restriction.

I think it's kind of funny how everyone's body signals them in different ways to let them know that they're full. What is your full signal?

Mine is hiccups. It took me a few days to make the connection, but now that I've figured it out, I know that if I hiccup, I need to stop :-)

I get a sharp pain under my right ribs that seems random, then I burp usually a weird sounding groaning burp, and it feels like something settled. If i'm SMART I stop there instead of "oh the burp made more room" but I have gone the bad route and found myself miserable.

It takes practice, patience and paying attention to figure out how your body is going to end up working on the hunger side. I'm glad for your progress so far!!

I get a little burp. It's a definite signal, because one bite post-burp, and I regret it mightily for the next hour or so.

I haven't figured mine out yet, but I sure need to soon! A few times lately I've had that "last bite" that turned into the one that was too much :(

Mine is hiccups or a burp. I feel soooo much better after a burp that I just stop right then and there. The hiccups however...They drive me nuts. I also find I will hiccup if I eat a little too quickly. :)

A hic-erp. A hiccup burp. Strange sound. I know now to stop at one because the second one hurts!

I'm almost 4 weeks out. When I was first learning I would eat until it felt like it was backing up into my throat. Seriously only a few bites. Not like I was trying to pig out or anything. Lol now I don't really have anything that happens but I just get this feeling like "I'm done. No more." It's kind of weird to just know "ok that's enough." Even when your head wants more. But I haven't had the backed up to my throat sensation in quite awhile so I guess I've figured it out now. :)

That's a hard one for me still and I'm 4 mos out. Usually I'll start pushing my food around on my plate. I never noticed it till my hubby did. I don't always catch myself either when I'm eating by myself :-(

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
