jerilo10 26 Posted December 19, 2012 I'm starving all the time. I don't get it. It's very frustrating. I find myself cheating often buying things I shouldn't be. Sucks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeauxForIt 659 Posted December 19, 2012 I'm by no means a veteran (only 9 weeks out) but i can say that the 1st two weeks were rough with regards to hunger. I thought I was starving to death! I started on puréed at 2 weeks and things got A LOT better. Now I don't really feel hungry as much as empty when I need to eat. Hang in there...it gets so much better!!!

jen1211 203 Posted December 19, 2012 Hmmm, are you getting all your liquids in? I find that I am constantly sipping and don't really get hungry. I was sleeved 12-11, I did finally try some cream Soup today and that was very helpful! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jen1211 203 Posted December 19, 2012 I have had a few of those uh oh moments when feeding or getting food ready for my son, I'll be ready to lick or take a bite and I'm like oh no, I can't do that. It's crazy what a habit food can be sometimes! Good luck with the cream soups! I had butternut squash Soup and just that different flavor felt really good.

ebuck 24 Posted December 19, 2012 I know its horrible to admit but I get tempted even though Im not hungry. Head hunger is the worse. Its all worth it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ima Loser 197 Posted December 19, 2012 I have found the cream Soups have helped me stay fuller as well... I was also sleeved on 12.12.12... My Dr and Nut said I can start Puree somewhere between 7-10 days post op depending on how I feel... Their definition of puree includes Scrambled eggs so that makes me really happy! I am hoping to have a more full feeling then!! I feel like I am constantly eatting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jbrewer2933 15 Posted December 20, 2012 I'm not ever physically hungry cause the moment I take a sip of something I'm full, but I have horrible head hunger every time I see a hungry howies commercial I want to cry. I am at the creamed Soup phase but I hate soup and after all the broth I consumed in the first week I can't stand it so I am only consuming Water and Protein Shakes at this point. I am totally weak all the time. Tomorrow is my 2 week appointment I am hoping they give me clearance to drive I need out of the I house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
