Haven't had a felling of fullness



Recommended Posts

I'm 11 days post op and still currently on full liquids. I haven't had a feeling of being full. Is this normal? I eat about 1/4-1/2 cup of Soup, or pudding or yogurts and don't feel fullness. Really wondering why and how this is.

Yeah, it's normal while you're on liquids. They kind of funnel right through your sleeve. Once you start solid food, you'll feel it!

So glad to hear this - I was sleeved on 9/2 and haven't really felt the total fullness - but I belch a lot - I am so hoping that goes away soon!

I was sleeved the 2nd too. How are you feeling?

liquid usually goes straight through you, so you won’t get that full feeling. Once you go on to more solid foods, you will certainly feel it!

When I had the sleeve, initially I felt that my surgeon hadn’t taken enough away. Had he actually done anything??? Then I had more solids and really knew he had. Give it time, it’ll happen!

I sure hope everyone is right on here about feeling full once you start on more dense (solid) foods. I am always hungry. I am almost one month post-op. Can't wait to eat normal foods again. This liquid diet is terrible and finally feel a tiny bit of satisfaction with yogurt. Ready for the real stuff.

      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?
