Crackers and bread would be the last things I would be eating at your stage. Protein first is the rule. To me, that stuff fills you up way too fast so you can't get in enough Protein and then slides through so you're looking for food again too soon.

You also need to determine if you're HUNGRY or if you just want to eat. They are two different things and hungry feels different after surgery. I am rarely actually hungry. I know I need to eat when I have that EMPTY, almost painfully empty feeling, I get lightheaded or I get nauseous.

Chili is a good option, though it will take you a few meals to get through a serving, even a small is huge for us.

Just know that if it is made of meat or dairy you can pretty much eat it and try to work in a green veggie or some fruit if you can tolerate it, now and then.

I would definitely call your doc's office back and reschedule an earlier appointment, but is it your DOC that you need to see, or your Nutritionist or even a nurse?

You are doing great so far, stay on the yellow brick road because eventually the sleeve won't be doing the majority of the work and it'll just be you and if you're still depending on a lot of carbs, that willl slow you down.

It's common to experience Hair loss 3-5 months post-op. It's most likely due to the trauma of the surgery and a lack of Protein immediately following surgery. hair loss now is the result of evens 3 months ago, so there is not much action you can take now that will have any immediate effect. If you've been good about protein intake post-op, it should taper off on its own fairly quickly.

      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.
