Stomache Feels Empty At Night



Recommended Posts

My stomache has a very empty feeling at night, it feels like I'm hungry but its there even after I have a snack. It's really a yuck feeling to try and fall asleep with, anyone have insight to what it may be? I do take dexilant in the morning for acid stomache. Any ideas?

Sleep! It cures all. I remember that feeling well. If it got bad, I just remember walking. It seems when I went for a walk, my empty feeling went away with the release of endorphins from exercise.

I do need to get my walking up. I'm going to definitely do as you suggest! Thank you for your response, I was worried it was only me :)

I have the same feeling at night and first thing in the morning. I hope it eventually goes away because I find it annoying.

I have the same feeling! And when I drink my Protein Shake in the morning I get nauseous for about an hour. I hope that it goes away. It really brings me down. I wish I can figure out why I get it and how to prevent it. Please any suggestion will be appreciated.

If I feel too hungry, it's hard for me to fall asleep. Warm milk works both if you tolerate it

I has this problem at first I would get up and have a tiny drinkable yogurt and go back to bed. I talked to a friend of a friend of mine who had sleeve done last fall and she warned me about waking up hungry.

      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.
