InfiniteButterfly 438 Posted May 18, 2014 I'm on my third day out...I had a moment of ravenous hunger earlier, but a little sip of Water and the rumblies in the tumbly calmed down. Most of my hunger pangs are fairly transitory and don't last past moving around a bit or having a few sips of liquid (I'm on Clear Liquids for another few days) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChavaBling 145 Posted May 18, 2014 How about it, veteran sleevers? Any words of wisdom on feeling super hungry a few days out? I'd like to hear! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sjmj4ever 0 Posted May 18, 2014 Me too! I had mine on the 12th and I am hungry today! So if we are all feeling it must be normal. And remember even when we can eat we can only hold a 1/2 cup! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebellious Butterfly 91 Posted May 18, 2014 I had the sleeve also on Monday 5/12 and feeling fantastic but I'm getting very hungry and getting worried also.. I have an appt on Tuesday with surgeon and that is my first question I will be answering... stay strong,.i was sleeved on the 12th at northwestern in chicago and I have not wanted or craved any food, I thought I would want or crave something but I haven't, I even watched food network and didn't feel a thing, I even made pizza for my family and still felt nothing, I'm still on liquids I haven't tried puréed food yet but might try refried Beans tonight, 1 InfiniteButterfly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LookatmeNow34 25 Posted May 19, 2014 I was banded on the 12th and the Hunger is real....Converted to full liquids yesterday and tried pureed Soup and Protein shake and only could do a few sips of both. Today I actually ate a few bites of strawberries and laughing cow cheese.....My tummy ached a little PRETTY much with anything (cramping feeling)but I feel better... SCARED I am going to mess this up but being prayerful and hoping I can do my very best, Best wishes everyone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryann23 1 Posted May 19, 2014 I had my sleeve done may 12 2014 and I'm not hungry but mentaly I want a hand burger bad food smells so good I'm kinda feeling like maybe I made mistake I never realized how important food was to me I really love it but I'm down 21 pounds in my frist week so that helps I'm still on clear liqids 1 LookatmeNow34 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebellious Butterfly 91 Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) I was sleeved May 12th and I have not been hungry, so I'm surprised at everyone saying they are hungry, is it head hunger....I cannot see being banded or sleeved and try to eat solid foods that's sad to me, why even go thru all this in the first place...eating mess and cheating is what got us to the point of wanting to get surgery......just don't understand but to each it's own, also people saying just because they can't have food that they think they made a mistake kills me, I feel the mistakes is what got us all here....ijs....no shade Edited May 19, 2014 by Rebellious Butterfly 1 KMP85 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
