2.5 weeks out
If i ruined something or if i stretch something out i would know right?? I just dont feel the full feeling . and i am starting to get my hunger back is this normal?
It takes a while to get the full feeling. Nerves in your stomach have been cut. You should feel restriction when you begin eating solid proteins.
Hunger is individual. I am almost nine years out and have never felt hunger. Many people say it returns for them a few months out, some people say they feel hunger from the beginning.
Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
I am also just past 2 weeks. At first I had that "full" feeling. And I would know when I should stop eating or drinking. At about a week and a half, I started feeling "hungry".
I was worried I stretched mine by drinking to much water one afternoon while out doors. My pcp said it's normal. I just try to eat a couple ounces every 4 hours. The thing I'm concerned about now, is Burping. I've never been a burper lol
Burping is getting easier for me wasnt my thing either lol but thanks for your input makes me feel more normal good luck to you and rest of your recovery

The burping side-topic made me laugh, because I was never much of a burper either. Now I "burp" myself almost every time I eat by gently thumping my upper chest, but I think I do it somewhat unconsciously at this point, and I have to make sure I don't do it when someone might be watching and think I'm really bizarre - lol. Feels good to get the bubbles out though! :)
I'm so glad you wrote this question because I am practically at the same stage as you are and was feeling and thinking the same thing. I have quite intense hunger pains, actually. Plus, I don't ever truly feel full when I'm eating. Thanks everyone for your input. It helps to know I am not alone with this. :)
