How far out at you? I struggled with that the first few weeks. I'm now a month out and am feeling full after eating.

Why don't I feel full after I eat?

I never got full on liquids. Now that I'm on puréed and soft foods I definitely feel full.

I also started taking Prilosec for the hunger feeling and that helps a lot!

I was the complete opposite. After surgery, (6 months ago) I got soooo full with just a sip of Water. Once I was able to switch to puree, yes u get even fuller. But fluids NORMALLY don't make u full because its not thick and it doesn't take a long time to pass thru ur stomach. :)

A lot of the "hunger" I felt was from the acid and not actual hunger at all.

I dont think we are supposed to feel "full " or we run the risk of vomiting. I am shooting for not growling right now and It is hard to get used to but I am slowly getting there.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
