I am almost 3 weeks out and sometimes it doesn't seem like I get full. Does anyone else feel that way. When that happens how do I know when to stop eating? I don't want to hinder my weight loss or stretch out my pouch. I thought I would get certain feelings when I am full. Can anyone help?

hey bud

at 3 weeks you are probably still on liquids

liquids usually will not give you that full feeling:wacko:

as time passes, you will start to eat solids and get

that "full" feeling - at that point one sign of being

full is you will sneeze, or hiccup/burp

way back when..... my hubby would yell to me

"oink oink, piggy" cuz he could here my different

sounds/noises when i was full!! LOL oh well, gotta love him !!!

doc told me to eat till i'm full, then stop 2 bites earlier;-)

follow all the rules, especially eat and drink sssssslowly

good luck

I am actually on soft foods. So I can eat regular food but only soft. That is why I am surprised I don't feel full

But the comments made about having nerves cut and stuff like that makes sense. I will continue to measure as I go. Thanks so much everyone!

I actually get really hungry at night. I drink a lot too. More than ever. And I have not lost since first week. Now on week 4.

Yes I get really hungry at night too. Not losing for that long can be discouraging. I haven't really lost anything in the last week. But I hear them say u hit a stopping point at week three so hopefully your time will come soon and u will see a weight decrease!!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
