I was hungry until I got to "real" food. liquids and mushy never made me feel full. Now my meal is 2 oz of Protein (chicken, hamburger, fish) and that is it. I stay full for 4 hours on to oz of dense protein. You may also ask your doctor about a ppi. Acid feels like hunger. Since taking a ppi I dont feel hunger most days.

PPI is a proton pump inhibitor, i.e. Zantac, Pepcid. It reduces the stomach acid that gives you heartburn/indigestion.

I would ask about the ppi. Many people take it post op. I never had any acid problems pre op and didnt feel like I had acid post op. I know I need it because if I forget to take my pill, I feel hungry. With it... I dont feel hungry at all unless it is head hunger. The further out I get it is easier to know when it is head hunger. When I truly need to eat it feels more like I am empty. Also, for me, full is not the same as it was pre op. I eat set portions of food only. I dont feel full like pre op... It is more like satisfied. Keep on doing what you are doing!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
