Can't tell I'm full!!! :-(
It took me quite a long time. While I only once (the day after I got out of the hosp.) I still have had some episodes of what I call pre-barfing. Kind of like when you get a ton of saliva in your mouth and you have to get rid of it b/c you feel as if you're going to barf but then you don't.
In the beginning I tried to stop eating while still a bit hungry (I was on pureed). This way I knew I wouldn't feel sick, bloated or nauseated.
Nowadays, with the exception of those few pre-barfs, I've pretty much figured out when I'm just about full. Give yourself some more time. I think once your body adjusts you will figure it out.
Best of luck,
A
