I just had it on the 31st and not hungry at all. Could it be head hunger you are experiencing?

I had surgery on Oct 30 and I also feel like I am starving. I do believe it is head hunger. It makes it very hard.

Are you taking your acid blocker? A lot of acid will mimic hunger. I know I feel it when I forget my Prilosec!

Ask for Prilosec or something similar. You can try tums or Rolaids until your prescription comes in.

Are we allowed to take a pill this early out?

I was given Prilosec in the hospital! I was surprised, but it is pretty small and thankfully went down well! I have an Rx for it at home too. Taking it 2x a day.

      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.
