Just when I start worrying that I can "eat too much"; I eat an ozof pecans and a couple tablespoons of soup and end up tossing my stomach due to fullness. ;/

Ok...so, I have no idea what tastes good anymore....but I stirred together Underwood chicken spread and smooth store bought Guacamole and it is really good and goes down easy. The guacamole is carb but it should be a healthy carb because it is a healthy fat and the underwood chicken spread is basically all Protein. 2 tablespoons of the guacamole is 4 carbs and 1 gm fat. The chicken spread is 1 carb; 6 fat and 4 protein. Just a thought....

One of my favorite quotes: "I am becoming the woman I always wanted to be." Finding one's self and acceptance are two excellent attributes.

It is not likely I will be able to get reconstructive surgery and I'm trying to determine how I feel about this *before* I have taken the step so I will be prepared *after* I have surgery.- 11 replies

I'm so hungry! 7 weeks post-op
Kaj replied to gamergirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've been battling constant hunger also and am like you, 7 weeks out. However, I know for a fact mine is acid as I am familiar with this feeling from before I was sleeved. It feels like hunger pains, my stomach is growly and feels empty. I am not having any reflux with it, however. No heartburn or indigestion. I was taking Omeprazole OTC since the week before surgery, however I found it wasn't doing a lot for the growling as well as I don't really want to continue taking a med that is supposed to be time limited. So today I bought some generic zantac and took one and it seemed to quite my stomach (and my hunger) significantly. It didn't completely take care of it but I will take another tonight and am going to give it a week and see how it does and if necessary, I'll up the dosage since I know taking 150 mg 2x a day is just fine because I've done it at a Dr.'s instructions on and off for many years. Hope my feedback helps some. Oh! And I'm doing between 700-900 calories daily but losing super slowly. (or at least it seems like it. ) -
Mokee, You and Bill are in my prayers and thoughts. I pray everything turns out for the best. ~D

Just go to Walgreens and buy it. Omeprazole is over the counter...no rx needed.
