Has anybody else had this happen?



Recommended Posts

Yesterday, I drank 12 cups of Water, ate 3 meals and had 2 Snacks, like I'm supposed to. I didn't have any problem getting anything down and felt really good.

Today, is a completely different story. I still feel OK, physically, yet I can't eat much. I can only get down about a 3rd of what I ate per meal/snack yesterday. I'm still working on my 2nd cup of Water for the day...it just isn't going down very good and I'm getting full, very quickly.

It's not necessarily a bad thing, I don't guess...it's just weird to me.

Has anyone else had this happen? Do you know why? Can anyone offer any insight into my situation? Thanks in advance!

I have definitely had that happen I think it's somewhat common. Sometimes there seems to be no rhyme or reason for it. But I notice sometimes if I'm nervous or tense about something coming up in my day, my sleeve feels extra restrictive.

Yes' date=' for me, each day is different. Some days I can get in everything just fine, and others I get full much quicker. Not sure why this happens. It could be the types of food your are eating (like chicken vs. fish), etc. Some Proteins just sit longer than others.[/quote']

Thanks. That makes sense.. I have been eating the same stuff, though. I tend to do the same things for a few days in a row and I do notice that sometimes 2oz fills me perfectly, sometimes it doesn't feel like enough and other times, it's too much. It's so odd...lol

This makes a lot of sense to me... I've felt kinda nervous all day. It was just so weird going from getting everything in, to struggling and having Water fill me up.

      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.
