A few sips into "eating" my liquid my stomach gurgles and I have to burp. Does this mean I'm full?

Do you feel full? i felt full even on liquids after my surgery. I am in my 11th month and i still get a full feeling when drinking Protein Shakes. I know not everyone is the same but i i would think you feel kinda full?

I really don't feel full, at least not the way I used to. Maybe that's why I don't recognize it.

it is hard to tell at first when you're full. and it is better to stop than to over eat.my surgeon suggested i do what was called the 3 bite method - after i started eating of course - but you take a bite and chew it until it is liquid before you swallow then repeat that until you get 3 bites in - then wait 5 minutes before you eat another bite. If you are still hungry eat another bite in the same manner and wait 5 minutes in between each bite until you are satisfied. He tld me to eat until satisfied not "full" - i didn't realize what he meant until after i had the surgery and was getting satisfied on far less food than before. It doesn' seem like much food but if you are eating 5-6 small meals a day then you should be fine. now during the liquids part i just drank as much as i could at a time. I was able to drink my shakes with no problems once i got on that part of my liquid diet - as long as i took it nice and slow. My stomach makes all kinds of strange noises and sometimes very loud and in the most public of places...lol...it is normal i'm pretty sure!! i hope some of this helps.

How far out are you from surgery. For me, for the first two weeks or so, I had a LOT of gurgling with every single sip of anything. It was due to the swelling, I think and once I was more healed up, it went away.

My surgery was two weeks ago tomorrow. It just seems hard to tell only being on liquids. It helps to hear I'm not the only one. :-)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
