Not feeling full



Recommended Posts

I am only taking in 1/2 a Protein Shake and Soup twice a day. Sometimes I feel full other times I don’t. Does anyone else feel like this? I put Protein in my soup or some juice to make sure I get my protein in for the day.

That's all you eat? 1/2 a Protein Shake and Soup twice a day? That's not much at all. When I was a month out, like you are, I was drinking 2 shakes a day and eating some pureed foods.

It has taken me awhile to learn my new stomach. I don’t ever feel full the way I used to like typical full feeling after say a holiday meal. I have all new triggers that let me know it’s time to stop and I’ve learned (the hard way 🤢) not to take one more bite. My head will still eye the food on my plate and want to finish it. For me I’ve had to realize satisfied is my new full

I look at the commercials on tv and think boy that would taste so good. My dr has everyone go in phase 1 is Clear Liquids for 2 weeks, phase 2 is Protein Drinks and creamed Soups for 5 weeks, phase 3 is full liquid which means I can have Everything in phase 2 plus cream of wheat yogurt and pudding for 1 week. Phase 4 is puréed foods for 1 week. Phase 5 is introducing food back into my diet. I almost crave just chewing the food.

I feel full really easily, so I'm still getting 600-800 calories a day with Protein Shakes and some cheese and deli ham.

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
