That Full Feeling and Liquids

So I have been trying to figure out when I am full. I don't ever feel full. There is no pressure, no feeling at all in fact. Instead my entire body will get a sudden hot flash that will leave a sheen of sweat on my face and back. If I take another bite after that, it will only get worse. I did not understand what it meant at first, I live in south Texas, it's ALWAYS freaking hot. And right now it's in the 100's out there so the A/C units are fighting to keep anywhere even kinda cool. So now I get an extra flash of heat to top it all off. LOL!

Before the surgery when I would ignore being hungry I would suddenly get dizzy and nauseous. Now, I skip the feeling hungry part and seem to go straight to dizzy and nauseous when I need to eat something. I was shocked when I realized that had followed me through, even if it makes since that it did. But I guess now I know what REAL hunger feels like, and what head hunger feels like.

One last thing, not being able to drink for thirty minutes before and after food, sucks! I am perpetually thirsty, no matter how much I drink. So for the hour and a half I can't drink is almost torture. LOL!

Getting used to my new life, one day and one lesson at a time.
