4 Days Post Op- No Hunger Yet

Can't say I feel full all the time, but I just don't feel hungry at all. I've been around food and I do miss being able to eat certain things, but I don't have a desire for it yet. Thank goodness!

I've had some chicken broth but I don't know what feeling I'm supposed to have when I'm full. Other than feeling everything I drink going into my stomach and gurgling a bit, I don't know how to tell when I'm full and I'm afraid to find out!

I had surgery on 10/23, so im 5 days out & hate that gurgling everytime u swallow, its loud and gross! Wonder if it goes away?

I only know I am full when I belch!! My nut told me some people hiccup some sneeze. I measure everything as well, total is about 3 oz I can tolerate . I am 7 weeks out tomorrow.

I am a 5 wks out. I do have the belching and it is when I'm full, hungry, and more when constipated . My gurgling has stopped. I felt the fullness with liquids but everyone is different. If I drank to much I would get nauseous so I started paying attention to what restriction felt like. When you get there you will know. But don't really worry about restriction or fullness while on liquids is what I was told by my surgeon/nut. I still don't feel hungry unless I have gone all day without any intake. Bad as it is I have done this. It's hard to get everything down sometimes especially when I'm constipated. TMI but it's so true.

I'm am 6 days out. I'm the same way, no appetite and I find things taste bad but i think it is because I don't feel like having anything. I'm gurgling too. It got better when I started takings a stronger antacid. It is worse when you can't go to the bathroom. I fixed that and I feel better. The tightness when I drink is such a weird feeling. It's uncomfortable mostly. I hope it gets better too.

Also, when I stopped drinking gatorade and anything acidic it got better as well I try to do water and ice only. Anyway, hope that helps.

It gets better, just make sure you get your vitamins and as much liquid as you can. I still have trouble eating and I'm almost 6 weeks out. Food just has no appeal to me whether its the texture or taste.
