A few friends have mentioned that their nose will start running once they've eaten enough food and I'm wondering if this is a way the body indicates that it's full... or can it be attributed to allergies in my part of the world (Dallas, TX)?

how weird i was just thinking.. the same thing.. im full right now and my nose is runny .. lol

need2change,

sounds silly doesn't it... when I was newly sleeved my nose would run or I would sneeze when I was full... my husband who is not a sleever has always had a runny nose when he is full but we only realised the correlation once I was sleeved!!

Same here - My nose runs when I eat too much am I'm almost at the 2 year mark ... I guess when the little stomach gets full - it needs to push the excess somewhere?

yep mine too!!

I get hiccups first then within 10 minutes I get the runny nose. I love the fact my body gives me clues. I never had those before and my friends love it too....they know all my clues!

My nose doesn't run but I sneeze three times when I'm full. Strange. Happened before my surgery too.

I normally get the hiccups when I'm full, but for the first time last night, I had a few hiccups and then my nose started running. I told my DH, "Oh my, my nose is so runny, I wonder why?", and then I started feeling a slight bit of nausea. Finally, the light bulb went on, and I realized that I was full. This was the first time that it had ever done it. I remembered hearing some folks talk about it, but had never experienced before. It's amazing what our bodies will tell us if we will just listen to it!
