Pureed foods How you feel when your full?
Hello I just wondered if someone could tell me how they felt when they were full. I feel like it starts from the bottom of my feet and a cool feeling rushes up thru my body and then I have to get up and lean on something until I know I am ok. Will this soon pass. It is scarry! I had my first dump with soft scrambled eggs and I was so scared and I was at McDonalds with my husband and I had to run to the restroom. Anyone feel this way? Thanks Connie d
Sounds to me like you might be eating too fast, and by the time you realize you are full, you're overfull. I eat very slowly, chewing everything 20 times at least, and then waiting at least 20 seconds before picking up my fork or sppon again for the next tiny bite. By doing that, I am feeling it when I am full - to me it feels like a gentle tweek where my pouch is. Before surgery I had an eating class to go to and the teacher explianed what "full" would feel like. She had each of us put out a fist, then she came around and squeezed your fist and gave it a quarter turn at the same time. It's sort of like that, but where the pouch is (center left).
Hope this helps.
