I'm also trying to figure out what full feels like, I get burpy every time I swallow I'm (1 week post op) so maybe still gas? I did feel like a rock/ knot stuck at the end of my esophagus type of feeling for a few seconds and I'm wondering if that's it? Time will tell! :)

I'm six days post-op and have four more days on Clear Liquids then another ten days on full liquids. It is amazing to me how much difference there may be between post-op diet plans.

Very true @@Kooky1 By day 3 I was on full liquids, by 9 puréed/soft, and at my two week follow up I was allowed to start incorporating regular foods. I guess it's all in how they were trained, and how well things are progressing.

I am actually experiencing this right now. I am 5 months out and, pretty religiously, weigh everything because I still cannot "eyeball" 4 oz. Tonight I had my usual size piece of salmon and made some guacamole as well. I, of course, forgot about the whole taste testing actually counts as food:) Halfway through my salmon, I started to get that over stuffed Thanksgiving day feeling that then generates pain in my upper back. Very uncomfortable.

      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.
