I'm 10 days post op and I'm HUNGRY! Is this normal? I'm on full liquids this week, I've had yogurt, apple sauce, soup, protein shakes throughout today...still hungry, so I scrambled an egg and mashed it to applesauce consistency and I'm somewhat satisfied but afraid that i may mess something up? Help?

Thanks Guys! I thought my surgeon made a mistake with me? The first few days I was not hungry at all, this past week has been tougher than the pre-op diet. Great advise, Protein shake for dinner, although I've already had two in addition to all the other "stuff" I don't want to stretch my new stomach or damage anything.

It's a beautiful Sunday and I am drinking a lot of water and vitamin water!! Getting prepared mentally, physically for a new chapter in my life! I'm scheduled for Surgery @ 10:15 am tomorrow. Every time I think about it I get really nervous because I don't really know what to expect...how much weight I'm going to loose? will I be sick afterwards? Will I keep it off? How I will look & feel after weight loss? I'm 5'3" tall 285 lbs! Ready to feel & look better.

Thanks a lot for the advise, I will keep that in mind. I took the Bariatric Advantage Protein shake, it actually tastes pretty good and I was not hungry at all.

Thanks for the encouraging words! I really appreciate them, the only person I've told is my mom and although she's been wonderful, it's nice to correspond with others who have or a going through similar changes.

I was just approved for surgery on Friday and I have an appointment on Tues. guess I'll find out my surgery date then. I'm so excited! I started this process in April! I was online doing some research and found this awesome app! Reading some of these posts has been so informative. * I have a big family and alot of friends; But, I haven't told anybody that I'm having the surgery. Not sure if I will tell anybody, has anyone else done this?
