feeling full after you eat and a question

Sue&Pasquale

I always have a salad for lunch. I have been using the same bowl forever.

Now I think I have to cut it in half. I feel like I am going to explode. I just have that UGG I ate to much feeling. I had it last night too and I only had 2 pieces of pizza.

Also I thought the tiredness was supposed to let up. I am exhausted!

anyone have these feelings? what do you do split up your meals into little ones?

Maybe it's something that happens once you get near 12 weeks?  I've been feeling like this for a few days.  I'm starving, then I can't eat everything and then my stomach feels horrible for hours.  It's been hard for me to eat a lot during the day, but I'm supposed to be eating an extra 600 calories.  I don't think that's happening.

Veronica!  You're here!  Was worried about you!

As to OP.  Yah, this happens to me a lot - I'll think I can eat a horse, but will honestly get really uncomfortably full after a few bites - my friends all say this is pretty normal right now...

yes! I feel this way nearly everytime i eat! i try to eat smaller meals...like little half meals throughout the day.

I've been feeling full much quicker also. I used to just be able to eat and eat and eat... now I eat like a third of my plate and I feel stuffed. Then 2 hours later I'm hungry again.

I guess its good though, because I'm supposed to be eating smaller more frequent meals, looks like my body is making me do it whether I want to or not!

I just always keep a few snacks in my bag (peanut butter crackers, granola bars) and eat when I feel hungry.

I feel like this now!  Everytime I eat I fell like I gorged myself then it just sits there in my throat. But.... I'm not puking or nauseous so I can't really complain.

I found that when I was pregnant, I would think I could eat the same amount that I had before.  I would get FULL eating about half what I would have but I would eat more.  I found that I had to snack about every two hours or I would have the worst hunger pains!

I have an enormous appetite and under normal circumstances can eat half a large pizza by myself (oink). However I too am finding myself full after about 2 slices. I am also still exhausted. I had a good run of it for a week or two when I thought I was out of the woods but this week has been just terrible, both for m/s and exhaustion. Hopefully things turn around soon.

Yes, and it's SO annoying because you get hungry so much faster.  And hunger, for me = nausea.  So I'm basically grazing all day long.  Okay at home but ridiculous at the office.  But I go from "hmm, I could eat something" to "I'm going to barf, I'm starving" in about 10 minutes now.  So I look like I'm eating all day to anyone paying attention (probably no one).

I am too! It's like mood swings only dietary! I really want a dill pickle.

Yes. This is me.

I've been feeling the same way! Very full after a small meal and I can be starving beforehand. I noticed yesterday that I was hungry every 2 hours on the dot so I did a lot of snacking throughout the day.
