Recommended Posts

Anyone else get actually hungery at this stage? I am getting my Protein in and not drinking with meals. Some days I am OK but lately I have actually been getting hungry. So I drink more Water. It helps a bit but I thought I had a few more months of grace period. Is it just me? I wake up hungry.

With this cold weather, this's normal. Don't worry. You can eat a laughing cow light wedge to combat the feeling

So the surgeon must have done something to my brain I wasn't hungry for 6 months. I'm 7 months almost 8 months I have days I'm hungry & days I forget to eat & days I eat very light and I'm fine. I do eat daily 3 meals and Snacks. Healthy choices no chips & such:) feeling hungry is normal. I'm the one not normal.

Yeah me too. If I really listen to my body I would be 80pounds. I would live off crystal light & crackers. I force my self to eat. Do you ever not feel hungry but have to eat lets say Breakfast after you are it since you wasn't hungry you vomit it up?

Waking up hungry is good. I told my doctor I always woke up hungry. When we are awake we eat every 2-3 hours.... We sleep for about 6-8 hours our bodies are telling us it's time to eat!

      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.
