Hey there, you will feel 100% better immediately if you go outside and take a 1/2 mile walk very slowly. Get moving and I guarantee you that you'll gain energy and feel less hungry. Good luck!

My doc told me that post-op hunger is usually thirst. Work on getting your fluids in. And ditto for the exercise. Good luck!

Your not very far out of surgery. Dont worry about Protein , but make sure to get your Water in. A month low on protein isnt going to hurt you. It will come in time as you start eating more food. You will get hungry its just different.

Hello...Yes, walk or go to the gym. Today was my first day back in the gym and I was only able to do 25 minutes but I'm feeling better. My surgery was 11/18/14. Don't get into that state of Depression because it can easily come. Get Moving...

I agree with Par. Hydration is critical for me. I still struggle with getting enough fluids after 6 months. I feel like I am always behind on it. I did get so dehydrated the day after my surgery that I required IV's. That was a lesson learned.

      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.
