I can relate. I am 3 months today. But the only time I feel this way is when I'm not getting my fluids or calories in. I have a very active lifestyle, up at 2:30 to go to the gym, work my 5:30, home at 4, bed at 10. So maybe watch you fluids and calories. Track them. Maybe when you feel this way you might be lacking in one of these areas. Hope you feel better.

Wow! No wonder you look so skinny! How do you keep that schedule? How many days a wk do you work out? I am 2 mos post - but only going to the gym twice a wk right now...Any idea what caloric intake is "suppose" to be each day?

Might want to have your sugar and bp checked..just in case. Are you getting your fluids in? You don't want to get dehydrated.

Well thank you for the compliment. My schedule is what it is due to an 18 month old. I go to the gym before work so I can have more time with her. I go 4 times a week. But was doing that 2 months pre op. Calorie wise I keep it 600 to 700. But not really worried about calories. For me, carbs are that keep me from losing weight. I keep them from 20-30. I think the most important part for me is fluids. If I don't get them, I don't lose. So drink up 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.
