I Feel Like I Can Eat The World Some Days.
ginna replied to Jbaz777's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Being hungry means you are not getting enough protein in. I'm 6 months out and I am never hungry. I eat bcuz I have to. -
For me that pressure meant I was full. I wasn't always able to get 1/2 cup in me at every meal. My dr said that was fine to stop when I was full. As long as I got my protein in first and was drinking all my liquids. Im 6mo out now and eat 1/2 cup no problem, but never more.

Your right. I never realized how many differences there were until I started reading these posts. Lol I'm supposed to eat 4 x a day all protein.

How much sugar is in the tube? It sounds like you might not be tolerating them well. -
I was told to be careful about cracker chips, pretzels, etc. as they are a "slider" food and don't give you that full feeling. I'm 6 months out and just now have tried pork rinds. I absolutely loved them. I ate a couple with a meal though. Somehow I have managed to not snack inbetween meals.

I got lucky. 5 months before surgery, my husband started a new job and his insurance covered my surgery 100% otherwise I was looking at $1500 down. Your insurance company or surgeons office should have let u known from get-go though,

Take it from someone who dumped for a few days....it's not a pleasant experience. I wasn't even intentionally cheating. I got the wrong yogurt. Not only was I dumping but I went from losing a pound a day to not losing anything for a few days. So for those of you intentionally cheating, you may want to think about that. When I want something sweet I eat a SF Popsicle or suck on SF candy. I also want to share a friend of mines story: she cheated from week 2 on and her surgery was now a year ago. She hasn't even lost 100#. We all got this surgery to become healthy and lose weight its not worth it to go through this process and then cheat.
