munchies

[sarahp_newme 29]

I eat what im supposed to and watch my calories as well as my Protein intake. I have a hard time getting enough fluids in but i try lol. These last few days I feel like I cant get enough to eat. Ill eat at my meal times and 45 mins later i feel like im starving and i could naw off my own arm lmao. I go to healthy Snacks but i feel like im defeating the purpose of this surgery by munching all the time. Has anyone else gone through this?

How you going with Fluid intake? And are you taking your acid reducers?

[sarahp_newme 29]

I dont have any acid problems....i try to drink as much Fluid as i can one of my flaws though i will admit

My nurse practitioner & surgeon told me that I was actually dehydrated when I was feeling hungry. So, when I started thinking I was hungry, I would drink, drink, and drink. It worked for me. Hope this helps!

Thanks for that information. I will have to give that a try.

My doctor told me the exact same thing. He said by the time you feel thirst you are already dehydrated. He pushes Water more than anything else. He told me the more I drank the better my weight loss would be.

For me, when I felt like that it was actually acid problem. I didn't have them pre-surgery now, but if I don't take my PPI, I feel like I'm starving.

I pushed more fluids today than I normally would and felt better. thanks for the suggestions. 3 more pounds to -50
