Yes am about 10 days out and think folks who are never hungry are blessed. I've been starving at least twice and have to control my intake otherwise I eat too fast and feel horrible.

The first week I was always hungry, especially because I was on a clear liquid only diet. I am one of the people that feels hungry often, I am struggling with that. I just try to have a good Protein snack and it subsides. Also I noticed the more fluids I drink the less hungry I feel. Good luck, hang in there....

Thanks @@DenaD I was hoping that it wasn't just me. I want to eat something so bad but I'm scared I will mess my stomach up, so I'm going wait till Thursday to come off of the clear liquid diet, and move to Soups I can't wait but I will do this the right way. Have you had crackers on the Soup stage

Oh my dear, you're struggling from the worst head game that you've ever been involved with .....you still want food and your brain is still presurgery.....you cannot have crackers too soon ....you will be miserable ....work very very very very hard to continue to taking your clear fluids that'll help so you and follow your doctor's orders...... the head hunger games are brutal and like a demon .....but don't let it defeat you.... you can be strong I promise...... it will go away.. And after you have started to lose some weight and start getting into a routine and you understand how your little tummy works you will be able to eat good healthy regular food with no problem .....food is coming back....

I felt like I have been hungry since I was sleeved on May7. It is hard to tell head hunger from tummy. Also when my tummy is acid it feels like hunger.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
