Am I full or is that gas?



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery May 1,2017 woke up in pain but the pain was from my throat they really did a number on my throat it was red and bloody. I'm still having pain it hurts to swallow which is kind of making it hard for me to do this liquid diet. But I force myself to eat but I notice when I sip my broth or tea I get a feeling in my stomach its like pressure rises up and then I might burp. I just was wondering if anyone else is or has experienced this. I don't know if its gas or am I full so I automatically just stop eating until I feel like I'm ready for more. I also think I'm not getting enough of something cause I feel lightheaded and very dry. Please help me I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Full feeling is really different now- don't even feel "full" down in my belly Region- it's a weird feeling much higher... the swelling will continue to go down making it easier just keep drinking small sips and try to exhale as you do... you are doing great!

That's a good way to put it. I agree. I was sleeved three days ago and experiencing the same thing. It takes forever to eat or drink everything. I feel like all I do is sip and nibble my three little portions each day and that's all I have time for. Lol

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
