After surgery gas and acid reflux can feel like hunger.

Take gas x and an antacid see if it goes away. If not feel up on Protein. What stage are you in liquid, purée, soft?

I'm on full liquids and I'm currently eating cream of chicken. The Protein Shakes don't sit to we'll I. The stomach. I drink one I the morning then I get the rest in my Soup with unflavored powder

This doesn't help you now, but it gets better. I'm 7 weeks out today and for the first 5 I was ravenous. I still get hungry, but it isn't intense and it's only been the last week that it hasn't literally driven me crazy.

I can totally relate. I am just 5 days post op and still on Clear Liquids till who knows when. I have my NUT appt on 1/8/13 and am hoping I can progress to Atleast full liquids.

I'm Hispanic and we go all out with the food on Xmas and New Years. The smell in my house from all the cooking is driving me crazy. I'm really starting to have buyers remorse. Atleast think wth did I do this before the holidays. It's soooo hard!!!!

perhaps what you think is hunger could be dehydration and acid indigestion.. Find something to drink when you feel that pain. Try an acid reduction med too.. If it is true hunger, it will get better as time passes. try and eat low carb high Protein. eat slow and dont drink before or after. Good Luck

They are absolutely correct with the acid/dehydration making people feel hungry. Has happened to me a lot. Dehydrated and starving. Better now. Every time I get indigestion (a lot) I feel hungry.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
