I'm finally supposed to be able to start the pureed phase of my diet, however; yesterday and today I feel like I have taken a step backward? Yesterday I felt like I was constantly hungry but too full to eat anything and today I can't even take a pill that's been cut into fourths without discomfort. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this happen or if there's possibly something wrong.

My Dr did not have me taking any pills for a month. Chewables, blood pressure patch, Prilosec capsule opened up and taken with a sip of liquid. Drinking Premier Protein drinks filled me up and I never felt hungry. Sipping slowly and aiming for 2oz every 15-30 minutes kept me busy and my protein high that first few days. Good luck!

You're feeling hungry and full at the same time, that's head hunger. Your use to eating so your brain is telling you to chew. Listen to your tummy not your brain

My doctors told me to cut or crush pills, and I don't think it was head hunger because my stomach had physical hunger pains.

could be acid - are you on medication for that?

I think you may be right. After I thought about it a little more, I did eat something that had a little more "flavor"...yes, I have 2 meds. Today I feel a bit better so it was probably something that just irritated my stomach.

Are you taking a PPI? Stomach acid can feel like hunger.
