Sleeved In August. Hungery And Eating A Lot More.



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on August. 14th. Starting around October 30th I have lost my "full" feeling. Struggling with eating. I am getting all my liquids but, I do not feel the "full" feeling I have had since my surgery !!!!! I am not losing weight because I have the loss of control!!! Scared to fail!!! Was doing great. Went from 268-167. Have tried to go back to the basics but can not stick to it. I am terrified!!! Any suggestions????? Please help!!!

Sorry. 238-167. Miss typed. Still is good. 71 pounds but it was because I could neer eat much and now I am not feeling that "full" feeling. Find myself with the lack of control I had before. How are you doing with eating???

Yes 71 lbs is great, I'm doing fine I guess I can eat probably a half tv dinner at 1 sitting or eating out I can get in like 5 OZs food sometimes 6 then a couple hours later I'm hungry again so I just try to hold out until next meal, if I can't I eat veggies :/

I am 5 months out and I have only lost 71 lbs, so you are doing great! I just kind of graze all day. All six of my meals are about 2-2.5 ounces and I have been finding some really yummy high Protein recipes at food.com I try new recipes all the time. They are healthy, high in protein and yummy so I don't feel like I am on diet food.< /p>

Your body is probably setting off alarms that something is not right here at all!

All hands on deck. Emergency.

You are ultimately in control, though (believe it or not).

What is going to happen if you are hungry? Nothing.

Add chia seeds to your food. Work in more Fiber. Double up your PPI to morning and evening.

Exercise more. Not that I know what will work, but there is something that will do the trick, its just finding out what.

      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.
