One bite too many...

Why is it that my stomach won't tell me I'm full until I've taken one bite too many? If I could just get a full signal from my stomach, I would stop. It always seems as though one bite is the only difference between being fine or being miserable until everything passes through. Anyone else having a problem knowing when they are full?

only happens when i eat too fast! i know that if i dont make food last 20-30 min, i am not going to feel great when it is all over. try slowing down just a bit and see if that helps markita marie open rny 11-11-03~~minus 50 lbs

Some times I have that problem too. Some times I literally eat two small bites and am very full...other times I can eat 3 oz before feeling full. The goal is to eat and STOP before we feel full. That's really hard to learn to do. Especially since we're used to being able to stuff ourselves. I guess its all a learning process

i know what you mean. i usually have that problem for my last meal of the nite. I am usually fine for during the day. When i was pre-op i woul dhave small meals during the day and when the hubby came home, I would have a large meal for dinner with him. I think that i need to retrain myself to eat small meals all the time. the only times i have barfed from eating too much was at the late meals
