Me too - I had my band removed and an RNY on 14 December. Keen to form a group - I am doing really well, but I don’t seem to be ‘reading’ my ne tummy well yet - wondered if 10 years with the band contributes to that...

I'm having the same trouble. I think it is due to the band. I don't have a full feeling at all, but I'm still on liquids. I wonder what it is going to be like when I go to soft foods.

I am 16 days post op. On soft foods for the last week or so. I can’t tell if I am full - sticking to the guidelines for how much to eat (2-3 tablespoons yoghurt or cottage cheese) but don’t feel full, regurgitate. I have just in the last two days noticed that if I eat too fast I get sudden fatigue, think ‘maybe I might be sick’ and a bit clammy - passes after 15 mins. Mild dumping - has been a good incentive to slow down!

Not feeling full bothers me - temptation to eat more until I do. Never been much good with resisting temptation! But am resisting this - my tummy is still healing, I keep telling myself. Treat it gently!

Thank you for letting us know. The sad thing is, I used to depend on a full feeling to let me know when to stop...ugh. I guess I know now that I may not be able to depend upon that. I will have to measure everything, because I do not want to risk more issues in the future with eating too much, especially with new gift with having this surgery. No many people get a second weight loss surgery.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
