I dont feel hungry at all in fact I have to push myself to eat the 6 pureed meals i, m supposed to eat, i, m 6 days post op and the 1 st 3 days it was Water and tea never felt hungry. I read they take the part of the stomach that produces hunger hormones, i, ve also read that you can get head hunger if that makes any sense?? Maybe you have head hunger, sure when you get to solids it will stop the hunger pangs.

I am off work a month. I am finally eating some puréed foods and my hunger is gone. The liquid was just doing nothing for me. Finally feel better and everything is going down great. Just in very small quantities.

I'm almost 6 wks out sleeved July 22 .. I feel hungry on and off throughout the day and fantasize about food / recipes . I sit down to eat thinking "I'm starving " and inevitably start eating too fast and feel full after 5 bites and miserable. I know this must be head hunger .. I try to drink but can't get my mind of all the good things I would like to eat ;( this part is frustrating for sure. I'm going to join the gym snd try to stay busier ?!

      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.
