As the title suggests, when I get over-full, I have the urge to sneeze...

Now, I'm pretty certain that it's NOT because the food has backed right up and is pressing against my sneeze button...

(All you non-doctors won't understand 'sneeze button' but trust me, it's an organ..)

I don't actually sneeze tho...

It's just that weird bit just like you're gonna sneeze...

Your eyes start to Water and get squinty and stuff...

Anyway, I'm not looking for advice or anything on how to fix it...

It doesn't happen very often and when it does, I'm fine with the feeling...

But it leads me to this question...

What kinda weird stuff does your body do now that it didn't do before??

Not necessarily food/eating related, but weird s**t nonetheless...

(Please, no graphic poo stories.. That's for another thread in another realm of the universe..)

Right, I'm out...

See ya!!!

I'm so glad you started this topic. I finally figured out the sneezing was after I ate. watery eyes, sniffling, the whole thing.

Thought it was allergies. Haven't read all the posts yet. But thanks.

I have a weird hiccup-burp thing I do when my stomach is full. It's a combo of them both at the same time.

I get a pain in my left shoulder.

If I eat sushi--with a little rice, I am prone to a drippy nose and a bunch of sneezes. Sometimes, I have to lay down.

@@Elode - that's a very good description. I call it a hiccup, but you know, it really is a cross between the two. I never really thought about it that way.

I get this feeling like there is a sideways burp that can't come out.

I don't know why but for some weird reason I think the sneezing is cute. I can now smell fast food a few blocks away in my car and I used to have a very weak sense of smell. I'm drawn to the smell of regular food (well food I cannot eat) but I become overwhelmed like it's just too much for me and my eyes dilate or something I feel something weird happening with them and I have to walk away from it fast.

I like the little symphony of gurgles and noises my stomach makes after drinking fluids. It goes on for quite a while - like air bubbles are rising to the top of a container...

When I am in Colorado (altitudes over 6,000') I wretch if I eat anything starchy. It's odd. I don't have this problem when I'm closer to sea level. It's happened twice, so I'm now very conscious of it. I don't know if its my diaphragm working harder to get air in but it is very real. Feel free to validate my experience flat landers

And, NO I wasn't smoking anything

I feel kind of bummed! I don't have any cute sneezes or hiccups or burps or anything like that to tell me I'm done eating. All I get is this feeling that is a little tight between my breasts. Sometimes my tongue feels like it's drawing back and that's it. I also get the cold all the time which is AWESOME because I used to be so hot and sweaty all the time and now I can wear all my cute sweaters and mittens and scarves and it's mostly fine. LOL

Perhaps herein lies the problem. Please repeat the test with the proper Colorado medication and report back. All in the name of science of course.

I am all in favor of the recreational legalization -- No Carbs, No Calories. Once America's women figure this out it will be the law of the land. (Women always get what they want, eventually, I make this statement after working professionally in politics for 30 years). I made sure a friend who is suffering from breast cancer got some and it has proven to be very helpful stuff.

I am in New Mexico right now. We are at 7,000 feet. I am visiting for 6 days keeping the Grandkids. I have had issues eating a lot of thing that I normally don't have issues with. I seriously think it is the altitude. I have no other explanations. I typically have no issues when I am at home.

i live in Colorado at about 6500 ft and I've never noticed a problem, but I haven't been down from our altitude to see what it's like closer to sea level. I have great restriction all the time though. I couldn't overeat if my life depended on it.

I'm so glad I stumbled on this thread! I was sleeved last week and have noticed the sweat/hot flash feeling a couple of times now and shortly after knew I'd eaten too much! Haven't noticed the sneezing or runny nose. So remarkable these bodies of ours!
