Fullness.....

[Mrs.Tomaso 0]

Can anyone tell me of their experiences with their stages and fullness. Right now I'm 1 week post op and I have no problems downing Water or Protein Shakes and I never feel full but I'm not hungry?!...Im so worried about not feeling restriction from my sleeve..Please help.

I was the same when I was on the liquid stage, but once I started to eat real food, my restriction grew and I felt full. So don't worry it's normal. Liquid passes quickly and doesn't sit on your stomach too long.

I was the same way I had no problems with my fluids but I didn't feel hungry but that went away about the second week I started feeling hunger a little bit couldn't wait to get to the primary stage by week 3 but now that I'm on solid foods I have to eat about 6 times a day cuz I can only eat maybe five or six bites and stuff at the most a half a cup at a time

I'm one week out and two medicine cups and I'm full! It takes me all day to get 30 ounces of Protein Drink in. I have a very hard time with water I don't like it much. I do crystal lite. Protein Drinks are not my fav. I drink 1/2 cup of beef broth for something different. That takes me a while but goes down better.

Ok I just hit one month on Thursday. Water and shakes were easy peasy. Then when i was started on foods - woah! Such a difference. You will feel it. In your chest. Between your boobs. And I’m here to tell you the first inkling if full- stop! Otherwise it’s an uncomfortable pain like none other. I can’t eat much either so it’s a slow process of tiny bites ... lots of chewing ... and waiting between. I still drink shakes in the morning 🤷🏼‍♀️

I started to really feel restriction when I started my soft solids and more so when I started regular foods. It will kick in!

I agree, the pain on chest in between breasts was horrible, I still have trouble with eating Bc I tend to feel like I can take one bite and when I do I suffer Bc I’m over stuffed. I have to work on that.

I'm with you. One week out today and having the same issues. The warm broth does go down much better.

I am going through the same thing! I have never felt a feeling of fullness! I have no problem getting fluids in and i was sleeved on 10/16/17. Im hoping that this will change when we get to solids! Im just trying to make sure i get my required fluids in and thats it! Im thankful but it is a little different then what i was expecting!

You will feel full when you start real food. Dense Protein will make you feel full.
