I feel like I can eat too much at times. Sleeved on 8/28, down 34 pounds from pre-op.

examples: 1 scrambled egg with a sprinkle if bacon bits and shredded cheese.

1 whole Cheddar wurst

I can drink Water like I used too.

2 Protein shakes at 1 time, 6 oz if Water, 2 scoops, and 2 Calcium packets!

I was like that too. But then other times I feel like I can't eat anything but 2 bites and I'm full. Now tho, it's like I dnt want to eat at all. I "forget" to eat until I notice my stomach growling. I dnt know if that's normal because there's no way I'm getting my Protein in (I'm still drinking like I should). I dnt know what to make if it either so if anyone knows please let us know :)

I find that heavy Protein meals (ground turkey, meat, and fortified Greek yogurt) tend to make me feel fuller fast. Foods that have simple carbohydrates seem to "slide" right through my stomach and I can eat a larger volume. There are several discussion threads on here about slider foods. The best thing is to experiment and figure out for your body what fills you up and meets your nutrition goals and which foods should be avoided because they lead to over eating.

      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.
