Not feeling full

I am almost 3 weeks out and sometimes it doesn't seem like I get full. Does anyone else feel that way. When that happens how do I know when to stop eating? I don't want to hinder my weight loss or stretch out my pouch. I thought I would get certain feelings when I am full. Can anyone help?

Just eat the 4oz slowly and listen to your​ stomach



hey bud

at 3 weeks you are probably still on liquids

liquids usually will not give you that full feeling:wacko:

as time passes, you will start to eat solids and get

that "full" feeling - at that point one sign of being

full is you will sneeze, or hiccup/burp

way back when..... my hubby would yell to me

"oink oink, piggy" cuz he could here my different

sounds/noises when i was full!! LOL oh well, gotta love him !!!

doc told me to eat till i'm full, then stop 2 bites earlier;-)

follow all the rules, especially eat and drink sssssslowly

good luck

I am actually on soft foods. So I can eat regular food but only soft. That is why I am surprised I don't feel full

But the comments made about having nerves cut and stuff like that makes sense. I will continue to measure as I go. Thanks so much everyone!

I actually get really hungry at night. I drink a lot too. More than ever. And I have not lost since first week. Now on week 4.

Yes I get really hungry at night too. Not losing for that long can be discouraging. I haven't really lost anything in the last week. But I hear them say u hit a stopping point at week three so hopefully your time will come soon and u will see a weight decrease!!!
