Hungry One Day - Not Hungry The Next. How?



Recommended Posts

Ok, I am getting frustrated by this because I can't seem to find a pattern and correct what's happening. Lately I have been really hungry one day and then the next day I have to practically force myself to eat a few bites. I get the shakes before I even feel hungry.

Yesterday was a hungry day. It seemed like I was hungry every hour or so. I tried to just be hungry but my sleeve gets pi$$ed if it is empty for too long. It will double me over (I am on Nexium for the acid). I was able to eat half of a chicken breast plus peas and Edimame Beans (about 1/4 cup). An hour and a half later I was hungry and finished off the chicken. It was like this all day. If I were still tracking I would guess that I had roughly 1,200 calories yesterday easily.

Today, not so much. It is 12:30 pm and I have had the following: 1 hard boiled egg, 1 small (finger sized) strip of grilled chicken, and two baby spoons of spinach. I have been up since 4:30 this morning. I had to force myself to eat the egg and then the chicken and spinach. I'm just not hungry and a very small amount fills me up today.

Ok, so what the heck? Your sleeve capacity cannot change from day to day can it? How can I go to bed feeling hungry and wake up feeling full?

I thought that maybe it was a difference in Water intake. No, I never drink the amount I am supposed to. I am lucky if I finish a single 20 oz Powerade zero on any given day. My urine is almost clear so I guess I am getting enough fluids (I'm also almost never thirsty).

I thought it had something to do with whether or not I had a BM that day too. No again. I have one almost every day and still fluctuate my hunger.

Any ideas? It's miserable to be hungry all day long one day and anorexic feeling the next.

      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...

        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.
