I feel so full...



Recommended Posts

I had my sleeve surgery June 22. No real problems- however, I am finding it increasingly difficult to get all my required liquids in.I am sipping Vitamin Water xxx zero ( which I like alot) but after a few sips I feel uncomfortably full. Eating is a chore, too.I have found that even 1/4 cup or 3 tablespoons of something makes feel so full... however, I LOVE and can tolerate 1 cup of yoghurt. Greek yohurt, and regular . Anyone else has similiar issues?

Do you mean June or July 22? Either way that sounds pretty normal. I'm 6/30 and I manly feel like that with dense Proteins now.

It's very frustrating! ! I feel like I want to eat, (but without any hunger)- then eat a few mouthfuls - and I feel stuffed!! I should be rejoicing at my constant and steady weight loss- however, I worry that I'm not getting all my fluids and Protein in

You sound like your doing fine and things are normal. It takes a little while to get up to your goal for food and fluids. Give yourself time

I got my sleeve June 10. I have been having a horrible time with Water. I've been really thirsty but am lucky to get down 25 oz in an entire day. My NUT suggested iced herbal tea and today I've been able to drink just over 50 oz! Don't know why I can handle tea, but water makes me sick. But hey, just happy that it works.

@BariartricBarb I am 13 months post op and Water still bothers me. It's weird; my sleeve can tolerate almost any kind of food but it's so picky about fluids. I can do Vitamin water and propel (black cherry and peach only). Fluids are always a struggle for me

Is it that you don't like taste or temp of water or are you having pain? Try changing temp or adding a squirt of lemon. If it is pain try sipping very slow.

@@Bndtoslv, My problem is pain a nausea. I've always been a Water drinker. Have never gone for soda or flavored drinks. It doesn't matter if the water is tepid or cold. I've tried flavor enhancers and don't like the taste. This has been the biggest and hardest change for me. I was final able to get all of my Fluid yesterday by drinking the tea. I just hope this isn't a forever thing

Have you tried Diet V8 Splash there drink is very flavorful but I have to really dilute cause I'm having some problems with anything sweet. But I like the tropical one it's more of an orange flavor.

Plain Water gives me major heartburn. I have to do something else with it.

I'm having a problem with sweets as well. But I'll dilute it and give it a try

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
