So... I am 12 days post op, surgery went very well mild discomfort but nothing extreme. The only problem I am having is that I AM HUNGRY?!?! I have read all about head hunger and have tried talking myself out of it, talking to my NUT and to my therapist but I promise you guys I am really actually just hungry? Is this weird?

Of course I find once I eat several bits of something I'm good but then I'm hungry again a couple hours later? I was on the full liquid diet for 30 days pre-op and am still on it until Thursday. I'm hoping when I start puréed foods Thursday maybe hunger will cease fire? Please let me know your thoughts as I just can't wrap my head around it. Thank you in advance! Oh and pre-op weight 284, today I weight 255.

First off great weight loss! When you get to more Protein dense food in purée and soft food the fullness will stay with you longer liquid type things will clear your stomach much faster.

      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...

        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.
