I Think I've Found My "Full" Button

After eating, I've noticed, when I've hit my "full" spot, I start sneezing. At first I thought it might be an allergy, but I have no other allergy symptoms.  Then I started noticing, when I hit my "full" spot, I start sneezing.  Weird!

lol, good to find a full button though.  mine is a start heating up.  i start stripping off what ever clothes i am wearing.  but happy to have the sign never have over stuffed myself

Glad to know you're paying attention to your body.  That's progress, isn't it!

Actually, most successful VSGers call those types of signals a "hard stop" - meaning that you've actually over eaten by a few bites.  I'd suggest you always use pre measured portions and if you're getting that hard stop signal, cut your portions back a little.  We have to learn to avoid the full feeling and learn to stop eating at the point of satiety.  If you eat to fullness, your portions will increase over time, maybe to the point where your sleeve is not as helpful as it could be. If you read the VSG Forum posts, you will see people saying to  'under eat your sleeve'. That's what they mean  :-).  

All the best to you.

Yeah I usually start with the sneezing when I've eaten a few bites more than I should have. 

Sneezing, runny nose, or hiccups. They all mean dial it back a little. Measure portions and don't go too far.

A couple years from now you'll be able to eat a bunch more without sneezing. Enough to gain weight, for sure. Get used to measuring and avoid that.

Good to know. I've seen people talking about "hard stop" but had forgotten about it.  I also have to remind myself to measure, etc.  Still new at this and just starting on regular foods, so I've got a lot to learn about a lot. I DO like my new tool, though. 

I don't eat to be 'full' anymore ..... Stop at a measured portion and wait for 'satisfied' to kick in.

if I get to the runny nose or sneeze stage, I have generally had too much.

Now that you found that spot, you can continue to notice what leads up to it ... And stop before it.

I get the runny nose . . . .  .so now, after 58 years on earth, I have to carry tissues
