I haven't had to take my prevacid for over a month!!!! WOOHOOO

I'm also stalled with the losing... I know I'm eating too much, I just need a kick in the butt. I need to slow down while eating. I need to eat before I get so hungry, because that's when I eat too fast. Turning the tv off during meals is a pain, I can't get DH to do it, and our kitchen table is opposite the tv. Excuses, excuses. I need to eat less. I'm thinking of breaking my dr's rules... he would prefer I have 3 meals a day (1 cup each) with no Snacks, but my stomach gurgles and growls all day- so loud others can hear, I get light headed and cranky. I need to put a healthy snack between meals or have 6 smaller meals a day.

What do you do?

I am only 4 days out of surgery but my Dr.'s notes read that if I am hungry in between meals (when I get them) I should have some fruit no more than 150 calories.

I too, came from syracuse, New York 6 years ago. We moved here to arizona for my husband's health. I am to goal with losing 90 pds and no fills. Never had too much hunger until recently. I am very tight in morning and just have a SF pudding for Breakfast, everything else would get stuck this early. I get very hungry by 9:00 - 10:00 so I have been having some peanuts to hold me until lunchtime. They are a good source of Protein and seem to hold me to noon. I am good the rest of the day and evening. Maybe some sort of protein between meals in a small amount will keep you from getting so starved. Good luck and keep up the good work.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
