Hungry

[Skyjack1 105]

I am 6 weeks out and lately I've been hungry every 2-3 hours. Will this feeling go away? I hope so it's scaring me. I am trying to eat high Protein to fill me up for longer periods but it's not working like before.

So I am not alone. They must not have cut out our hunger sensor. Most ppl dont feel hungry what I see on blogs. Esp in Obesity Help blogs. We must not be normal. UGH!!!! I will be 1 yr out nov 27. Its a struggle day to day.

Girls, but I though we are allowed to eat every 3 hours. why you cannot just eat snack? ( healthy one). I am 2 weeks out and I am eating every 2.5 - 3 hours.

I am thinking my sleeve must be larger than others is that possible?

Grl do I so feel you right now. I was thinking they did not cut out enought stomach too. Im so scared. Back to basic for me on Monday. Protein Protein and more protein. Pray for my kidneys.

I had 80 grams of Protein today and I am still hungry. Going to bed so I don't think of food. I thought I wouldnt live meal to meal anymore but this week has been rough. I am also on a major stall. Haven't lost in awhile. Very discouraged!

excess acid can make you feel hungry. are any of you on acid reducers? if not, maybe you need to be. it helps me a lot!

Two things - first, I have problems with hunger too. I was sleeved in May and the hunger never went away. Just bad luck I think. About the omeprazole, I found it to be completely ineffective, I wonder if it might not be working adequately for you? Then again, perhaps we are just in the same boat and didn't lose our hunger.

I will say I don't sit around thinking of delicious foods, I stick to my eating plan 99% of the time, but I think it just makes it harder because I am fighting the hunger. Try to find an eating schedule that helps with the hunger (I eat 6 times daily, about 100 calories each time) and remember that getting in LOTS of Water will help.

I am scheduled for surgery on October 30 and this talk of hunger is terrifying to me. First of all I am starting out a hundred pounds mire than most people I am reading about. Now I am finding out that people are hungry! I know this procedure is only a tool that will allow me to achieve a healthy weight/lifestyle. Believe me, I do not take this lightly! I know there are people that gain their weight back but I cannot let that happen to me!! I cannot!! I am tired of caring the excess!! Good luck to those of you that have already had the surgery!! I hope it gets easier...

I have had hunger from about 4 weeks on. I'm 14 months post op and I eat about every 3 hrs. Not full meals of course but maybe cheese and a couple of crackers or a couple of Peanut Butter crackers. My family jokes that my grandbaby and I have to stay on our feeding schedules or we aren't ourselves. Lol I take an acid reducer too but I'm still hungry that often. It hasn't effected my weightloss though that I can see. I just count the calories in for my daily amount.
