Feeling full?

So, I had the GB almost a week ago. I've been really trying to get all my fluids in and everything and I feel alright but my tummy is SUPER full. Is this normal? I last took a sip of vitamin water like an hour ago and I still feel full. Is something wrong with my pouch? I'm a worry - wart..

  • Don't worry, it is normal. It takes a while before your tummy can even tolerate everything they ask you to. Just sip when you can.

Yeah, I am 3 weeks out and I can still only handle 2-3 tbsp of food or a little more drink at a time. At my first week, I was 1-2 tbsp.

I feel full all the time- I think it is the gas inside stomach cavity but maybe not- I feel uncomfortably full all the time-- I am sipping as much as I can tho--

I know this is late but like others said I think this is normal. As far as getting your liquid in, it helps to drink warm liquids. This has been my Godsend! I brew a bit of herbal tea and cool it down with Water and I can drink really quick! It does not make you feel as full and uncomfortable.
