What is your full signal?

While on the Puree/liquid diet I didnt really have a full feeling like I was used to before RNY. I was able to consume much more than what Nutrition and the surgeon stated. That was the Puree/Liquid only!!! Let me tell you once the real food comes back even just the soft It is a different story entirely. The FULL feeling is so different than what I was used to. to me it is a Tightness. Or a fullness but Different. I dont realy know how to explain it. Weird thing was I was able to consume 8 - 12oz of creamed Soup or a can of V-8 no problem. I have no problem with fluids whatsoever. But I cannot handle much more than 1/4 cup of food... It is so weird. You will know..

Thanks big guy. I was worried as I can drink liquids without hesitation. At least I know I am not alone there. Haven't really eaten too much since I am still on purée but I hope the full feelings happen then!

My stomach will hurt and my nose starts to run. I'll hiccup as well. If I really tune in I'll realize the food has started to taste bad.

I'll know from the tightness in my stomach and chest that if I take another bite I'll vomit. There is a "DO NOT PASS" line for sure.

I thought I was crazy. My nose starts to run too.

I'm very curious as to what that correlation would be between a nose running and getting pouch-full? That would be an interesting study.

I think it has to do with your body thinking you have something stuck in your esophagus and producing mucus to help get it down. I found that if I start foaming/frothing, I just need to spit out all the extra salvia.

      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.
