5 Days Post Opp And All Of A Sudden Hungry



Recommended Posts

Hi. I just wrote in here how I couldn't get enough fluids in but now I could drink all day. I'm so hungry today. My stomach is growling and I getting envious of my husband when I see him eat. I start puréed food soon. I think Monday, and I can't wait. What is with this though? Can I drink more than 4 ounces every hour or will it make me sick.

You need to get Isopure Protein Water, you can get it at GNC. 5$ per bottle, its a 20 oz bottle with 40 grms of protein. the protein in it fills u up - promise. Only get the red or purple flavors the rest are awful. Its really not bad compared to the others. If u find it too strong cut it in half with Powerade zero. If u get red isopure - cut it with red powerade, and so on for all the colors&flavors. also carry that darn bottle everywhere u go ! HYDRATE, HYDRATE !! You dont want to end up back in the hospital dry heaving . Also , Target has powerade zero on sale for .88 right now - I suggest you stock up. I had no clue how fast I would go thru cases of 16 oz water bottles & powerade

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
