Missytee 138 Posted August 18, 2017 I'm confused. I'm just asking because I haven't had my surgery yet. One another thread they were saying that the fullness feels like a phentermine feeling. When you find out please post. I want to go into this thing right. Are you saying that you could keep eating and you don't feel any different ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CocoNina 210 Posted August 19, 2017 From what my nutritionist told me, you should reach your goals daily. Protein 60-80 oz (women) & liquids 48 oz or more a day. I knew I felt full when I felt like gagging on the next sip. Height: 5'0"Weight for WLS consultation: 216 lbs.Surgery date: 2/13/17Goal: -71 lbs for healthy BMI (about 145 lbs).Current weight: 140 lbs, now ready to lose 15 more past goal.My profile picture is not me. It's my "FITspiration" body. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who love a piece of cheese.< br>Sent from my SM-G935P using BariatricPal mobile appI'm the same! I don't have desire for food but I'm hungry (if that even makes sense) I'm 5 days also. I can have fluids but not sure if I'm full. I'm sick of sipping 24/7 already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
03Foles 6 Posted August 19, 2017 You don't feel hungry simply due to the fact your stomach is most likely still swollen. You may want actual food or have the desire for it because your brain is still in the beginning stages of the diet after surgery. If you begin to feel queasy, pain in the chest, or basically like food is stacking in your stomach, your full and should stop. If you are drinking and eating at the same time, you should stop that immediately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supernovae 34 Posted August 19, 2017 I dont feel anything. Just pain 24/7 in that area so I cant tell if I'm full or hungry or have reflux [emoji14] I suppose I'll get use to it Sent from my LG-H850 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
03Foles 6 Posted August 19, 2017 Your feeling pain? Is it from the incisions or just after eating/drinking. You may have a lot of acid in your stomach still. I suggest taking omeprazole which is a acid blocker and will prevent acid reflux. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sassy Sleeve 34 Posted August 20, 2017 I think this is really challenging sometimes. I am 9 days out. Just yesterday, I got to advance from Clear Liquids only - to full liquids and Protein Drinks. Included in that is cream of wheat Cereal (as long as it is runny), cream Soups (strained for any chunks), and greek yogurt with no fruit chunks. At the end of my 8 days of clear liquids, I felt hungry frequently. I could quell it with some broth, but it did not feel satisfying! Being able to feel like I am "eating" again is great. But, my weight bumped up overnight 1.2lbs - I am guessing/hoping it is because what I can eat has a higher sodium level and because it takes longer to digest the new additions. Today, I went back to measuring and recording everything. As of right now I am only at 446 calories. According to my plan, I am supposed to have some a Protein beverage in a couple of hours - so I will top out under 600 calories for the day. That is about where I was during the Liquid Protein pre-op diet. I feel full, but I also feel like I am eating a lot. However, none of the food is solid. So, what would be slider foods in the future? I also think I am probably eating too fast - so I need to refocus on that. I do have a lot more energy than I did when I was only eating clear liquids! I do feel hungry, and the usual triggers cue hunger (food smells from other people making food in the house). I am satisfied with a small amount of food, so my guess is that everything is OK? I did think that I would not feel "hungry" at this point - and that is not the case for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supernovae 34 Posted August 20, 2017 So I'm 2 days post op and feeling much much much better! In my hospital in Australia we go straight from operation to puree so I'm already on custard and puree Soups and yoghurt. Still not sure when I'm full though so just going slow. Everything feels a little odd and it's hard to tell the different between hunger and reflux and needing to burp.. Very weird feeling Sent from my LG-H850 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
