is there anyone else that is having a problem not getting full. I feel like I am starving all the time I am constantly snacking to try to feel full. I think the surgeon made a mistake and left my stomach in. I am 5 weeks post op I snack on cheddar cheese and beef jerky all day but am still starving by end of day. I have learned to stay away from chips because I can eat a whole bag and not realize it. I have a friend that had same surgery and he said he has same problem with chips.

Can you clarify what a day of eating looks like for you?

Liquids and slider foods will go right through without making you full. What's a day look like otherwise?

I had the same issue i cut out bad carbs and eat protein and veggies and i eat about 6 times a,day small portions and i dont get that hungry feeling, i also bought omeprizole and found alot if my feeling hungry was stomache acid

Well, I’m just learning to listen to my body so I’m no authority on the matter yet. However, I have noticed that assuming I sat slowly and chew properly I start burping when I’m full. Almost as if my tummy is trying to make room to accommodate the food.
I haven’t really pushed the limits much but it looks like if I eat 1-2 baby spoons to much I do a bit of a wet burp.

You already eating a whole bag of chips at 5 weeks. or you mean 5 months?. Did you do much research? Dense protein and you will feel full. It is highly doubtful that a surgeon and everyone in the room will go into surgery and.. By accident leave your stomach in and no one notice. If you use the tool correctly it will be obvious it is working, if your eating a whole bag of chips the tool is still working but it is YOU that is not using it correctly, which we all have done but you need to take responsibility now not blame the surgeon as thats to easy..

I burp and hear gurgles early sign of fullness for me i dont like the actuall fall feeling but you will know what it is for you as time goes on as long as your not eating more than the portion you are told to eat you will be fine.

Sorry my sence of humor I know surgeon didn't leave my stomach that was a joke because I was feeling so hungry but figured out it was stomach acid taking antacids helped
