Topic: RE: What does "FULL" feel like to you?
I can relate I seem to misunderstand when I'm full there are foods I eat where after couple of spoons I feel full and I stop eating...but....yesterday I had chilli and after going half a cup of the Wendy's chilli I felt like whoa I'm eating too much and I stopped although I wasn't full.....I get so confused to

Full.. well when i ate that 1pickle... well chewed and spit out.. but i still got the juices.. i felt full.. heavy stomach ... that is the full to me..... it feels like in the center of upper belly/chest area..... ...and my mind knows that ok my stomach only holds this much.. so stop stop... no more......
I cant beleive u got to have chili and we are the same surgery day ..erg... i cant until im a month out... i want it .
Topic: What does "FULL" feel like to you?
OK, I think my mind is playing games on me! I can not tell when I am full. I take a bite of food, chew it like 40 times. Count to 10 and take another bite. Like 5 mins later I kinda feel full...... I guess. I mean I am not hungry and mid stomach feels heavy, like in between my chest. I am thinking maybe since I see how little food I eat that I can not be full and my mind is saying......keep eating, but then I say, I really am not hungry anymore.......I am soooooo confused.!

I just had some Wendys chilli...... I wanted something to drink so bad after I ate it. I feel like maybe my surgery did not work. I had some chilli, (2spoonfuls), and little mashed potatoes. I am not sure if I am full or not ....I am starting a new title.... What does "FULL" feel like to you !

I just got moved to stage 3 yesterday... but up till yesterday my menu looked just like yours.. well minus the pickle Today was my very first day that I had 1 egg with some low fat cheese and I have to tell you it was SO YUMMY and of course for lunch I went to wendys and got me some chilli which I have to say was ohhhh so great but HEAVY... so I got like 4 spoons into it and the rest went to the fridge. But I have been cleared for flaky fish, tuna fish, cottage cheese, string cheese, ground turkey and purees (apple sauce, cream soups, taco bell refried beans with cheese (yum)). I felt like a kid in a candy store yesterday at the grocery store lol. I cant wait till you get to stage 3 it makes such a difference. I would feel some hunger in stage 2 but today nothing... I actually have to remind myself to eat. I hope you are with me soon!!! Hang in there and it seems you are doing great... and you look great too! Everyone says they can see it most on my face and it's true... you shine!
