Uh oh...starting to feel hungry...

Well, I have had 10 wonderful days since surgery with NO hunger. Today I went to the gym, did 40 minutes on the treadmill. I came home, worked around the house and then took my daughter and dog out for a 30 minute walk. Now I am HUNGRY! I am scared because I do not want to hurt the loss I have been able to accomplish. That first fill can't come soon enough....

After an intense workout most doctors recommend you injust some Protein. It will help replenish your muscles and keep you satisfied until your next meal. That's something that helps me.

I can't say it enough. Don't fear hunger. You should be hungry, it's normal to be hungry. As long as you are satisfied on your band sized portions, you're good to go. If you are not, then time for a fill. In time, you will also be able to distinguish real hunger from head hunger. Also...don't know if anyone else feels this way, but being hungry is a good feeling for me. And I mean real hunger. It's not something I was used to what with my eating all the damn time. But now, I look forward to it because I know it's a signal which I listen to, act on, and then move forward.

I don't know how to explain it other than to say that being in control is such a high..and a way better feeling than losing control and overeating or eating poorly.
