We need more info to give better answers... How many calories do you eat, how much protine, etc. Are you taking a ppi? I take a ppi twice a day. Acid feels like hunger. If you arent on one..ask your doctor for it. I follow the 600 calorie/+60 prot/+64 oz fluid/-40 carbs plan. Doing this I dont feel hungry. I log and track my intake on my fitness pal. For me this works!

I was sleeved July 18, and just went through two weeks before this week of really being hungry. I was getting all my Protein and etc in, just hungry. I would try to drink a lot more and that really helped. I had awful thoughts of cheating, but didn't. All of a sudden this week on Tuesday I'm ok against and yesterday had to force myself to eat enough. Hopefully this hunger will pass for you too:)

Bananas have such a minimal amount of Protein as to not really even count. They are also a high glycemic food, which means that they digest quickly and almost immediately turn to glucose in your body. That means a quick spike in energy, but a quick loss of the benefits. You should also be taking a PPI. You can get a prescription like Protonix, or you can go to a drug store and get Prevacid or a similar substitute. This is not the same as a standard acid reducer as it acts on a different mechanism. I take a PPI 2x daily, though many only take them 1x.

Do you know how many grams of protein you are getting daily? Depending on your doctor or nutritionist, he/she may recommend between 40-80 grams per day. If you are getting below 40, you are losing muscle and probably literally starving to death.

Did you work with a nutritionist that provided any papers or guides?

You can read packages to find the nutritional information. There are a lot of web sites that have the information on other foods. Many of us use myfitnesspal.com to enter our foods and it automatically calculates grams of Protein, carbohydrates, fat, etc. for us. You may be interested in signing up for a free account there.

      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.
