So I'm getting my blood work done for my 6 month Appt. I'm hoping all my levels are where they need to be.

Anyone else starting to feel a little hungry again? I swear I haven't felt legit hunger in 6 months and I'm starting to get little twinges of "I'm hungry..." again. I don't like it.

Yes I get hungry too. It still takes very little to fill me up though.

Hungry yes. Snacking yes! I find hungrier in the evening- when I'm thinking about it. Down to 147# today. Unfortunately not exercising very much. Mainly walking.

I have found an awesome mix to munch on... Dark chocolate morsels, sliced almonds and roasted pepitas! So good! A 1/4 cup of pepitas has 10g of Protein.

It's something that I made on my own. You just buy the Pepitas, sliced Almonds and chocolate morsels and mix together.

I've eaten just a small amount of chocolate at a time and I've been fine.

Last night we had a going away dinner for my brother (leaves Tuesday for Mississippi then about 6 weeks later for another 12 month tour in Afghanistan). My brother's best friends brother's jaw literally dropped when he realized who I was (it took a bit for him to place me). He spent the entire night either staring at me or trying to get next to me to talk...he complemented me on everything from my hair to my shoes and everything in between. It was hysterical! And extremely unnerving to get that kind of attention from a guy. This is so weird :D

Ok February friends, need some advice. I have been doing well until today. I ate some pepitas (roasted pumpkin seeds). I have had them before no problem. Today I felt kind of odd after eating them, but not awful. I drank Water. All ok. I ate some lunch-- some leftover turkey meatloaf. It was ok but I felt very full and gassy. It has gotten worse, so much so that I can't keep water down. Tried a zofran. No improvement. Still sliming.

Called doctor an hour ago. Haven't heard back. Ideas?

      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.
