on supervised diet and hungry!

[ajb1029 33]

Hey everyone! I've been shadow stalking the forums for a few months now and I've done a couple of blog posts but I thought I would post on here.

I have my 2nd weigh in for my supervised diet on June 5th, I am doing the Idaho Plate method/diet. My issue is I'm full after I eat a meal but if I've done really any exercise I become ravished in mere hour or so or it's just a random day and no matter how much I eat it feels like I haven't eaten anything. What's the best way to shrink my stomach so it won't complain as much if I don't stuff my face, maybe lots and lots of Water? I have to fly cross country in only like 6 weeks for my best friend's wedding and I REALLY wanna lose 20-30 pounds for it (actually I really wished I had had the surgery and would be able to enjoy the flight). Flying at 320 and flying at 290 is kind of a huge difference. While my fat thighs still leak into the space of the person sitting next to me (I HATE that!) the seatbelt is actually a little loose. Does anyone else have the issue of being hungry it seems ALL THE TIME pre-op? I am REALLY looking forward to the sleeve and the restrictive ability as well as the loss of the hunger hormones. I'd love any suggestions you all might have for the next few months, because I really do want to lose some weight and limit my portions and it doesn't count if I have a good dinner(portion wise) and then an hour later eat 3 chocolate chip muffins. >_< thank you for any advice!

Lots of Protein and water! I'm on my pre-op diet and because the protein is so high I am hardly ever hungry. Protein Bars are a life saver for me. When I feel ravenous I eat a Protein Bar and slowly such on a sugar free popsicle usually by the time I'm done with the popsicle I'm "full" or at least not wanting to eat EVERYTHING in site. My main problem is how gross the food is (it's all dehydrated and needs rehydrated with Water or broth). Hope this helps a little.
