Help? How do you know your full?

I've been having some trouble knowing when I'm full at times...I was wondering if anyone else has this problem. I do have one sign and I know its time to stop...I get hot and start sweating if I go any further after I feel like I'm food high or something.. Any one have the same or how do you know when your full?

I literally feel full and satisfied.. Was a learning process to pinpoint the exact feeling for me though. But I am a pro at it now :)

Thank you!! I'm thinking I just have to figure my new tummy out too☺

After your surgery it will take time to learn the knew signs of when to stop eating. It took me a long time to learn the signs. I threw up a lot because I over ate.

For me, there are two signs. The first sign is when I first feel the restriction kicking in. This is often very subtle in feeling. I normally stop then and there and feel fully satiated. However, I can eat past that point. The next sign is not subtle. It is very obvious that I am stuffed and I feel uncomfortable. I know that if I even take one more bite I will likely throw up. I also begin to slime at that point.

In time you will get used to it and just automatically stop at the first sign of restriction.

I haven't thrown up yet..(except when I drank coffee one morning and tea after- never again!)... Thank you for your feedback, its comforting knowing that I'm not the only one whos going or has been thru this..and that it does take time..????
