weird full signals



Recommended Posts

I've read somewhere on here that different people have different full signals. I've noticed lately that when I eat I don't feel an automatic "I'm full" feeling...I just figure that I've eaten enough. Later on, my back has a dull ache and even the roof of my mouth and the back of my throat kinda have an achey sensation to them. This lasts for a couple of hours. If this is my "full" signal, it's very different from what I'm used to. It makes me feel groggy and lethargic.

Today for Breakfast I had a half cup of raisin bran with skim milk and was fine.

For lunch, I had a lettuce/tomato salad with some hard boiled eggs and turkey lunch meat cut up. I've been feeling the above symptoms ever since.

I still haven't had my first fill.....

Does anyone else feel this way?

My full feeling is when I can FEEL the food SLOWLY making it's way down. Then I know, "Okay, there's no more room." Then I stop and about 10 minutes later, I am no longer hungry. But then I get hungry about 3 hours later if not sooner. ANd I have already had my first fill of 1cc. I go in again on the 7th to get an additional fill.

Well I want to know too, I usually start to hiccup and by that time I'm overfull and pb, I still don't have the hang of this thing and its very frustrating, sometimes I can eat certain things, sometimes I can't, personally I am very annoyed by the whole thing, most days I sit here and think if this whole process was worth it, I sit here and wish I could eat one of those massive burgers they prepare at CHilli's, oh boy, I can't stand it, I want one of those burgers so bad. But I can't, I can't even eat bread, this is a lot tougher than I ever imagined, I am sure it will be worth it in the end, but meanwhile I am left here wondering. Well hope someone can help with this question.

I actually tried a Jr. Cheesburger Deluxe at Wendy's last week. I got half way and was feeling like I was full but could still fit some more. Then I felt that awful stuck feeling and I was driving and had to pull over. I wasn't sure if I was going to throw up or what. I didn't, but needless to say, half of the top bun was thrown away. I just can't do hamburger bread. Sometime toast is okay, but I have to eat it extremely slow and one is enough. But give me some saltine crackers with melted cheese on them and Tuna-mayo-hotsauce on top, and I can eat about 30 of those things.

      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.
