Why is it every time I go to eat or drink something it makes me sneeze? I feel like I'm going to get sick but every time it's only a sneeze.

I would get hiccups when I was full. Now I get hiccups and a runny nose. Those are my signals to stop eating.

I get a runny nose when I'm full, but I've noticed I've been sneezing a lot more.

I sneeze and have a runny nose when I am to stop eating....Even when we were fluffier, our bodies gave us signals to stop eating, that we were full. Sighing during a meal is a tell tale sign you are full...Watch the people around you and when they sigh or take a small breather before they reach for the second helping you know they are stretching their stomachs...

Interesting how so many of us have the same tell tale signs or warnings that we have had enough to eat...Listen to that and stop eating when you sneeze...I do....I appreciate recognizing it as just that!

Nope...that is not it..Like I said it is a signal that you are full and should stop eating at that point...If you think you have not eaten enough Protein...Have a small a snack later on..

It is recommended that we eat up to 6 small meals a day...I eat 3 and one snack at night....Seems to work for me...

Don't forget we have head hunger to deal with....We work on our heads while we are following the program and using the sleeve as a tool to help us.....Hope this helps kid!

No it's my first bite of anything or when I take a drink.

I started out that way too.. I told someone on here that I sneezed when I ate a bite..That was true..Now it is when I have had enough....I think the body is telling us to be careful....

Try when you sneeze to stop eating and really take the time to feel your sleeve...Let the sneeze pass and take another bite...See how you react...Eventually your body will respond at the right time......

No it's my first bite of anything or when I take a drink.

I sneeze a lot now. However, it's not when I'm eating. I agree with RJ...we need to listen to our bodies. I'm very respectful of my new tummy. I also know the amount that will fit in it, so I never serve myself more than that. Possibly you could now be allergic to what your eating or your body no linger wants that type of food. It's definitely an adventure!

A full stomach stimulates the vagus nerve which can cause sneezing. :)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
