Ok so I haven't had my first fill yet not till June 7th. I do so good all day but at night I'm so hungry. I have tried having a snack but that still doesn't help. What can I do?

try saving a few calories for an evening snack. Keep busy so you don't think of eating. Drink more Water. Just a few suggestions.

You an try saving some calories for a snack as mentioned above. I would make that snack Protein based chicken breast plain (maybe mustard), or low fat cheese stick. If you are going to have carbs make them a plain veggie. Look for Mini Sweet Peppers in the produce department. I just eat them buy hand and don't bother cutting them up (great price at Costco).

I've also heard people talk about having a Protein Shake in the evening, frozen a bit more and it gets them through longer... (i'm still in the pre-op stage so my help is limited). Good Luck!

I'm not trying to be a negative Nancy but im always going to bed hungry. I got my first fill this week and there's just not a whole lot of restriction in the evening. It stinks. i do eat a high Protein snack before bed but it's a tiny thing compared to the bag of microwave popcorn I ate before bed just a month ago.. So I'm wondering if part of my issue is head hunger? or

This might just be part of "bandster hell"?

A snack is a good idea. I eat1/4c nuts and find them very satisfying. I measure because they are very calorie dense and have significant fat. Low carb though.

Thanks everyone. I'm still in the mushy part of the diet so I try a ff string cheeses. Maybe I should try a Protein Shake. Before the band I used to eat the most at night so I think that's why I want to eat.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
