Hungry 2hours after eating...



Recommended Posts

The past few days, I will eat Breakfast and then about 2 hours later I am starving and my stomachs is growling. It's been 4 weeks since my surgery. I've tried Protein Drinks in between, but that's not working either. Anyone else had this problem?

Yes. It's kinda frustrating cuz it seems as if we still have to be obsessed with eating all the time. Every 2-3 hours, my stomach starts cramping and hurting until I either eat or drink.

I'm gonna be 4 weeks on monday and feel similar... not "starving" but I NEVER felt hungry before (after surgery obviously) today is the first day I've felt hungry. I just checked my log and I did add 100 calories to my intake, which is not bad, I felt like I had eaten more than that. I am on puree stage, I am not loving it, it is hard to find something tasty made "mush". I also started working out on tuesday, 40 min of cardio, so I am sure that has something to do with the increased hunger. I am not stressed, I just want to make sure I log everything to share with my doctor on my next appointment. What stage are you on? Are you working out?

Dehydration can mask as hunger. Are you getting all your liquids in?

I am.. I drink a lot of Water and drink at least one Protein Shake a day, sometimes 2, my doctor said one was enough.

I think it was a head thing. I eat a good bit of Protein, and drink a good bit of Water. But I have noticed that since I upped my water, I am not as hungry. Still staying on the 3 meals a day.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
