CaliGirl77 6 Posted September 3, 2016 Hi All, I had the RNY on 8/23 and have yet to feel full or determine what restriction feels like. I just had moist eggs for the first time and after a few bites I started to burp.... Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KristenLe 5,979 Posted September 3, 2016 That's a sign of being full. Are you measuring and keeping to the suggested amounts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shi-Shi80 73 Posted September 5, 2016 I felt the same way about not feeling no restriction but then I realized I am only drinking liquids so maybe that's why. LOL I'm so ready for tomorrow because I go for my 2 week follow-up and will be on soft foods!!! Hope I will notice a difference when I eat something with more consistency.

reeniemay 64 Posted September 5, 2016 I had my surgery on 7/19 and still have no fullness/restriction, I sometimes get a burp or a hiccupy burp and take that as a signal to stop. I measure my food when home and when I'm out I split a meal with my daughter and usually only eat half of that, not because I feel full but because I tell myself that's enough. But with that said I have no hunger! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pammieanne 269 Posted September 8, 2016 At only a couple of weeks out, your stomach is still swollen and healing. You can't feel fullness because your nerves were cut. Measure, and don't push it, and don't worry. Once those nerves start working again, and the swelling goes down, you'll feel plenty of restriction. At almost 4 months out, I still have plenty of restriction, get food stuck, and can't even eat the amount my doctor said I could try for. You'll get there, but don't push things now because you might hurt your newly formed stomach! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

saramarie 4 Posted October 24, 2016 I'm 5 days out of surgery and am feeling the same thing with only taking liquids. I didn't realize how fast I was drinking my Vitamin drink and downed 16 oz in 30 mins just now! I used to get a pain in the upper left quadrant when I was drinking too much but that has stopped. I'm glad to hear that this happens to other people and that I haven't necessarily stretched my stomach out! I hope this stops soon and I feel as bad as they say you do if you if you eat too much!

Mudgy6 88 Posted November 5, 2016 Im 3months out and I still belch-burp with everything I put in my mouth. I have gas all the time. I know that after I take 2-3 bites, to stop because if I try to take another bite, I will be in trouble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
