Finally know what it feels like

I am on the pureed food diet now. I was so afraid that I would know when to stop eating and I found out today after only a couple of onces of food! I had a knot in my chess and it felt so terrible I wanted NOTHING else to eat. This journey is truly amazing. I can't wait to see how how far I get. Is there anyone in this stage or have experienced this that can share their story with me? ]

@Lenamatie301 I know exactly how you feel, I've experienced this feeling multiple times but just after a few spoon fulls to be exact!!! The feeling is HORRIBLE, and I agree I rather not eat anything else.... What's helped me get past it if it continues to linger about 20-30 mins later is something warm, preferably a cup of tea!!!!

I'm so glad to hear this! I really wasn't hungry the first few days post-op, but today is day 7, I have 2 weeks of full liquids left before I get to purees, and I am so hungry all the time again. I hope I start feeling full again after I get on purees

I am 8 days post op and my hunger just returned yesterday. It scared me because I don't want to overeat. I'm on full liquid diet till next week. I'm allowed to have yogurt and is been hard to only eat 2Tb cuz I want more. It's reassuring to know that I'm not going to want to overeat.

I felt the same way when my hunger came back. I was so nervous. When I finally got real food and my body actually told me to stop it was a beautiful thing. This is the signal I either didn't feel or it didn't exist before.

I bought baby spoons, so it takes me longer to eat. Work's great!

That's actually kind of cool you can recognize those signals!
