I'm starvvvving! Like all the time lately. I KNOW some of it is head hunger, but a lot of it is not. Anyone have any suggestions for staying full in between meals/snacks?

I think this is mainly head hunger. A good way to tell is if you drink Water and the feeling of hunger goes away.

Things I snack on are

Nuts

pretzels

Goldfish

cheese it's

pop corn

I really like things that are crunchy. I also tend to have cycles. I really crave certain things and it change every few months. Right now I love pretzels. Last month it was cheese its.

I think mine may be PMS as well because all I want is salt and chocolate haha ... I did an overhaul on my lunch tomorrow and its basically ALL Protein with very very minimal carbs. Hoping that helps to ward off any hunger pangs I have been experiencing! Lol *fingers crossed*

Dont worry, real hunger also returned around month 3 for me. I freaked out as most people dont get hungry after RNY. Was mine broken??

I dont know what it is but i have made peace with it. I dont think it is headhunger - although i do get that still sometime but i can differentiate between it now.

I upped my Protein and it helped a lot. Problem was i think i didnt really keep tabs on how much Protein i am consuming and got in waay to little.

Perhaps the case with you as well?

      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.
