1 Week Post Op - Hungry.....



Recommended Posts

I'm one week post op today, and lost 9lbs this week. However, today seems like a turning point in hunger. I have been starving all day ( tummy growling hunger). I'm feeling concerned about the "feeling full" aspect. When I'm turned loose on regular food, will I really get that "full" satisfied feeling? Right now I feel like the bottomless pit.

I'm 3 weeks out today and I've just started feeling hungry but only if I haven't eaten. Make sure your getting your Water and Protein in. The protein will help with hunger. 9 pounds is great! I'm down 22 lbs today but I was at a stall for about 4 days.

You will feel full once you start on the full liquids and puree! Matter of fact my stomach tells me if you eat another bite "you will be sorry". I only eat 4oz 3 times a day and I have 2 Snacks but nothing over 100 calories. I measure out the for oz and when I get down to the last bite or 2 I feel a huge difference in my stomach.

Have you went to your 1 week post op yet? If not, write all these questions down because when I went for mine, I for got everything I wanted to ask about cause I was so excited about the weight that I had lost.

Anyway, keep me posted I'd like to hear how your doing since our surgery dates were so close.

Good luck.

      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.
