And I feel the same way about food too. I'm always hungry and obsessed with food too lol. Just watch your portions and calorie intake and you should be fine.

Yes try some scrambled eggs. I did before I was supposed to. Just make sure you chew it well before swallowing. And take teeny tiny bites to make sure you can handle it. Eat it very slowly and you should be fine

I feel like my sleeve is too big too. I can eat 1/2 cup of food and could eat more but I stop myself there. I sure hope this surgery will work for me. I was sleeved on 1/21/13. I'm also hungry all the time

I was VERY nervous of this too. Previous to the endo I never had any surgery of any kind. It's a very easy procedure and they medicate you so you don't remember much or even care. You will be just fine....I promise!!

I feel u on that....uuuugggh!! I wish this hunger thing would just go away! I really thought this journey was gonna be easier but it's not

I'm also trying to find other protein options without the calories!

I hear ppl talk a lot about isopure on here. Is it calories free? Where can I find it?

Wow this is me too! I wish I was one of those ppl who lost their appetite and it never returned. And I worry that my sleeve won't work either. I am making good protein choices but I think I'm eating too many times during the day 6-8 times. Well I will find out Thursday if I lost any weight in a weeks time.

Ahhhahahah I love the one about the gnat!! Def gonna use that one!!

The pain meds made me have a lot of nausea. Once I stopped taking them I felt way better. It could be just that. Ask for a motion sickness patch to put behind your ear. That helped me too.

I'm 2 weeks out and I'm hungry all the time. I have been eating every 2-3 hours but very small portions to keep me satisfied. I hope this hunger thing gets better!!

So I've been reading quite a bit of stories on here and noticed some of you still drink coffee. I was told coffee is a no no so I'm confused. Believe me...I would love my usual morning cup like old times. What are your thoughts on this?

Ok thanks!!

Nevermind I think I figured it out

Great job!!!! I'm still struggling with my liquid intake....But I'm eating fine go figure lol. I'm 2 weeks post op today Not to change the subject but how do I get that weight chart thing some of you have on the bottom of your posts? I'm pretty new to this website and can't figure it out!

*pre op

The ore op diet was the hardest part for me. I felt so out of control I was so hungry all the time. I think I only lost 7lbs before my surgery and my nutritionist kept warning me they may have to reschedule if I didn't get my act together lol. My Surgeon said I needed to loose 20 lbs before surgery. Well I sure didn't make it to 20. The 2 day colon cleanse really helped me loose weight 2 days before surgery. I feel for ya....it sucks but hang in there. You can do it!!!!!

Highest weight was 277. Day of surgery 1/21/13 was 272. I'm now down to 251. 21 lbs lost!!!!

Do any of u have it with cream?

I say go! I was sleeved on 1/21/13 and returned to work on 1/30/13. Just take it easy and don't be screaming and jumping around and u should be fine. Good luck and have fun!!

I feel the same way. I can eat a lot too. I think we all have different hunger and capacities after we are sleeved. I would love to be one of those people that is never hungry and who can hardly get 1 egg down. I sometimes feel as though I wasn't sleeved either. If I really wanted to I could eat horrible fatty foods and gain weight too. I'm just choosing not too. I didn't eat anything more than a few sips of broth in the hospital but by the 5th day I was really hungy all the time and still am. I'm 2 weeks out only. I do understand the people who say they are not satisfied with only 4 oz of food but I stop myself at 4oz so I don't gain weight.

You look beautiful!!

Hi everyone. I was sleeved on 01/21/13 and am just curious as to how much everyone is eating for each meal to feel satisfied. I'm working on eating every 2-3 hours about 2 ounces per meal. What about everyone else? I was feeling hungry all the time but now that I spread out my meals I'm feeling a bit more satisfied.

Good luck!!!! You will do just fine just believe in that

Wow....I already forgot how to post a new topic. Can anyone help me? I'm pretty new to this website.
