faifie 13 Posted August 29, 2013 I am a little over six weeks post op. I am hungry all the time. I am not getting enough Protein. 20-40 grams a day. I am losing weight I just feel like I am eating all the time. I am using my fitness pal and staying around 1000 calories. I am just worried I will stretch my tummy out Any one else experiencing this?

rebecca_dsu 241 Posted August 29, 2013 If you are eating 1000 calories and only getting up to 40 grams of Protein, I really encourage you to rethink your food choices. Eat more protein rich foods and less carbs and you will stay fuller longer 3 Libra102, faifie and gamergirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FRED1977 186 Posted August 29, 2013 I know teh feeling sometime smy emotional eater wants to come out. Fluids help quite my stomach down but then sometimes I just don't eat enough and need some more food. I'm 5 weeks out and still learning how to eat properly ,its hard. 1 crisbear reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Foor 655 Posted August 29, 2013 Odds are if you would get enough Protein you wouldn't feel hungry. Good Luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
