Dianthe

Hi everyone. This is my first post and I’m 9 days post roux-en-y today. I’m still on my full liquid diet and have my post op check tomorrow. I’m assuming he’ll advance me to a soft diet at that time (I’m very excited about this). My question is this: for the past 2-3 days I’ve noticed that about 30 minutes after my “meal”, whether it’s a protein shake, yogurts, etc. I find that I’m hungry, with actual hunger pangs. Nothing painful, just that hungry feeling in my stomach. I’m trying to up my water intake between meals to fill me up so I’m not snacking all day, but I’m wondering if this is normal? I’m hitting 70 grams of protein or very close to it each day, and my calories are between 400-600 most days. Thank you in advance for your input!

Ugh...so sorry for you! How long ago was your surgery?
