Question guys' date=' we are 3 months out now. I'm never really hungry but I still find myself at night snacking!! Nothing like I did before but I do find myself eating not so good for us stuff. Do any of you have this problem and what do you do for it? Like I said, I'm not really hungry but I don't want this to become a habit! I've lost 63 lbs now and I certainly want to keep losing and defiantly do not want to be someone that regains!![/quote']

Just pick something healthy too snack on. I snack on beef Jerky and turkey sausage. It helps.

Sounds like your sugar may be a little low at night (it drops for some people---including myself!). Down the Water and allow yourself a fruit snack. While you may "crave" the not-good-stuff, I'll bet the fruit snack will pick your sugar up a bit and satisfy your cravings. ie little cup of peaches, mandarins, or pears (packed in own fruit juice) topped with cottage cheese and honey (if desired)

      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.
