Wow...I wonder if it is more of a heAd hunger. Are you eating solid Proteins, they should keep you full for longer, also have you tried little miss divas boot camp. I would talk to your therapist and nutritionist.

Are you taking a PPI (nexium, prilosec, omeprazole)? I have trouble distinguishing my thrist from my hunger so I try to get some fluids down ASAP. I wake up every morning with some dehydration. You may be having gas which can make you feel like your hungry. If your not taking a PPI, then ask your surgeon if you can take a PPI. They are sold over the counter at pharmacies and drug stores. Increase your Water intake to help loose weight. ;)

Wow, that's great weight loss. I do not wake up in the middle of the night bu tin the morning I am hungry, time for a Protein Shake and coffee. Then mid morning I will have an egg or something. Maybe just keep a shake in the fridge ready to drink that way not to many calories and its good for you.

I had surgery on 3/2/12... Was at 256, now down to 212, I can't break my stall. But I know it's because I am eating too much. Once my food goes down, and I dont have that full feeling anymore, I find myself grabbing something else to eat because I feel hungry. I tried to drink more Water, but it doesn't seem to help. I feel like all I think about ALL DAY LONG is food! :-(

Due to complications I was first sleeved in March of 2012 then 3 months later I had to have the bypass done. It's was rough healing wise but looking back, well worth it. With the sleeve I wasn't able to keep any thing down, throwing up constantly to the point I developed a hernia smh. Is been a long hard road but I'm better for it. Start weight 230, current weight 125. From a size 18 in plus to a 5 in juniors, I'm soo not complaining. The first 6 months of this journey had me feeling like I made a major mistake, I was miserable and depressed. But when I began to feel better I started to notice positive results and that motivates me to stay in the gym, and eat right. Still working on taking in more Protein, since now I'm working on toning and adding 10 pounds of pure muscle lol.

      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.
