DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! 12,703 Posted October 18, 2013 That's normal. You're on limited calories and liquids aren't filling at all. I was on liquids the first 4 weeks after surgery and was starving pretty much the whole time. It sucked but I survived it. Just remember this is a temporary phase necessary for healing.

5.0junkie 770 Posted October 22, 2013 Be sure and get all your Vitamins and supplements in. I was starving if I missed a dosage but always felt satisfied if I was nourishing my body. V8 fusion is great along with any supplement you can mix in your shake. I'm almost four weeks post op and still find more satisfaction in shakes and liquids than I do any solid. Just a thought but maybe it will help. It gets better... Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
