@peek..

I have only lost 21 since surgery (10/8) - was 116 . (almost six weeks out now). As mentioned I have been eating alot so I need to exercise more I guess. My nutritionist said just keep thinking about your TOTAL loss - to keep you encouraged. It's a long road ahead.

I added you as a friend on MBP..

Glad to hear I am not alone in my struggles with hunger and food!! I hear that most people don't even think about eating in the first 3 -4 months. If you are on My Fitness Pal - and want to share info my user name is estipo.

I've been wondering the same thing! I deleted my Facebook (gave it up for lent) and then reactivated when the Facebook group was mentioned. I never received an invite, so I deactivated it again.

I'm not. Nothing on Facebook is guaranteed to be private. I don't want their IT errors to let everyone know my personal business. I use FB with caution lol

I agree, however all of our posts in here are searchable by Google. I noticed that the other day. Just search your name in quotes followed by bariatricpal. Quite intrusive if you ask me. I'd prefer it to be more private.

@ I'm in the FB group and it's a lot of the same on here. I'm not worried about the FB group being hacked b/c frankly if anyone wanted to find out anything, it's all open and so is the forum here. And my hospital support group is on FB too, also a private group, so I figured in for a penny in for a pound.

@@es fatBgoned I, too, can eat most things & I am hungry pretty quickly after Breakfast but I realize I may not be eating enough. Typically I have breakfast, lunch, Half a Premier Protein shake midafternoon, and dinner . I don't have a morning snack and I don't count calories. This could potentially be why I'm hungry. I have to be better about counting calories or at the very least the amount of Protein I get.

      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.
