Am I reading my body signals correctly?



Recommended Posts

Im 2 weeks post op...and last night for the first time I was like IM STARVING....so I made myself 2 scrambled eggs (runny)...it was an approved food on my list for this point...but after I ate them I felt satisfied...not overyly full...shouldnt I have felt stuffed....does this mean I need a fill soon????? Maybe Im not reading my body signals correctly bc I was able to eat a yogurt about 1 hour after that??? I was still at about 1100 calories for the whole day after eating the yogurt but still WHAT THE HELL?

HELP!

Hey girl, first congrats on the new band! I think at first my body didnt know what was hungry, not hungry, full not full. It took me about a month before I could tell the difference! It was the weirdest thing. Remember, we want to feel satisfied not overly full. I think we are so trained into thinking that feeling full is the way it is supposed to be. When really what we should feel is satisfied. If I am not mistaken, when we get that full feeling, we have really overeaten! Also, the first 6 weeks is for healing, dont worry about a fill yet. There is plenty of time for that worrisome issue! I imagine you are doing great! Stay focused on healing and you will do great!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
