For the past couple days I have been getting more hungry than I have since surgery was done on 1/13/14. I was wondering what some of you do to curb the hunger or not eat so much?

Is it hunger hunger or head hunger? I have found it's easy to slip into head hunger or old emotional eating habits if not careful. Although I can never eat very much, I know because I reach fir the junk . I also find when I keep busy and focus on Water intake then I actually have to remind myself to eat. (Never thought I'd be that person :))

Jaci, congratulations! you look phenomenal!

amewme, I treat my ice and ice Water like a treat. Early on, my hunger was mental. The day home from surgery, I wanted a grilled cheese and was in NO way really hungry, and still crave some of the old foods that used to fill "the void" but this has become much better... and easier. I've read that when hungry, grab fluids first. If I find myself hungry still, I grab string cheese, a hand full of unsalted dry roasted peanuts, two ritz crackers with Peanut Butter, sugar free pudding or a couple spicy Pork rinds.< /p>

      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.
