candys 12 Posted December 9, 2013 Seems like I'm always hungry for some reason It feels like I'm not getting enough with the shakes.I called dietician she says I may not be getting enough protien. So she told me to eat every three hours . I just can't see that happening does anyone else have this problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scootergirl 118 Posted December 9, 2013 I have posted this elsewhere. Is there any chance you are having post nasal drip from allergies? Post nasal drip running down my throat and filling my stomach leaves me feeling "hungry". Prior to restarting my antihistamines I was having a terrible problem with unquenchable "hunger" that was not hunger at all. Try some Claritin if you can.

AuriP 420 Posted December 9, 2013 While I havent been sleeved yet, I read on here from someone that acid reflux can cause hunger symptoms. Have you discontinued your acid reflux meds? If you have, maybe try using them again and see if it helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gamergirl 4,610 Posted December 9, 2013 I too am 4 months post op and I eat 4-5 times a day which turns out to be every 3-4 hours. I don't know about you but I can't hold too much food at one time. I think it makes sense that if we only eat 200 calories at a time or less, then we will get hungry that much sooner. I aim for 60 gms of Protein as the mininum every day but most days it takes me 2 shakes to hit that amount. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
