delta_girl 931 Posted March 3, 2014 For me, the most important part of VSG wasn't the reduction in the size of the fundus, it was the impact on ghrelin. Part of that is a mental analysis of hunger, head hunger, thirst, cravings, and an acute awareness. At 17 months out and 91 lbs lost and still losing, I supplement with foods that have a lot of Fiber or Protein. With that said, I also eat out constantly and am an avid fan of craft beers and red wine. Every time I feel something like hunger, I try to become very still and aware of what it really is. I still remember my surgeon saying to me, "So, what happens if you are hungry?" ....and I said, "I don't know?" ...he replied ..."Nothing." 2 Steph W-O and catnapper reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your references to not concerned with size of fundus but was of impact on grhelin, & that you eat out constantly & fan of beer & wine, surgeons reply to do. nothing when hungry....no doubt,good advice & points made.
