Feeling Full

The last two days I been feeling a lot fuller then normal. I can't even finish my 1/4 of a cup three small pieces an I'm done. Anyone else having this issue? Can you stomach shrink more even after surgery?

    Depends how far out from surgery you are... I'm no expert, but I'd say the swelling would take a while to subside... It will also make a difference as to what you're eating... I'm sure you know, yo

I'm no expert, but I'd say the swelling would take a while to subside...

It will also make a difference as to what you're eating...

I'm sure you know, you'll eat less meat (chicken/beef/etc) than you will yoghurt (or similar)...

Or maybe you're just not 'hungry'...

Just see what happens...

And if it's really troubling you, give your doc/nutritionist a call...

I have had times where it took nothing to reach that feeling.

Currently I can eat two pouches of flavored tuna in a 15 minute period. I know....I know....too dang fast, but that is lunch. Done and cafe is shut down....timer started and Water is had 35 mins later.

Recently I would have one pack and that was it.....done......no desire to eat another.

I have no idea what to attribute this change to.....but I have learned to listen to my body and roll with it.

Also the nerves in your stomach continue to heal for 8+ weeks after surgery, so your stomach isn't getting smaller, but your nerves can get better at detecting food in your stomach and relaying that info to your brain.
