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!

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!!!

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!

I was sleeved the same day as you... how are you doing with the cream soups? I'm just focusing on liquids and getting in my Protein shakes now.

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. :)

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.

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!

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.
