Almost 2 weeks post op and sooo hungry



Recommended Posts

I am almost 2 weeks post op made myself eat the first week. And now almost two weeks out I am so hungry in between meals. This morning I had 1/4 cup cottage cheese. A half our later a small glass of orange juice with Protein Powder. And lunch a piece of deli turkey with a thin slice a of cheese (chewed until mush). This is not head hunger, I am genuinely very hungry and can not wait to eat dinner which will be a small amount of cod. Is it really a good idea to go so hungry inbetween or should I have a sugar free pudding or something in between. I know Snacks are a big no no so I haven't done it. Not sure how to handle this.

I would suggest that you brush your teeth more often than usual, especially after eating, drink a flavored water like Chrystal light powder sugar free stuff, take a walk or do some other task that you enjoy and lose yourself in.

I too feel hungry, and find that if I keep moving, get out of the house and walk, go to the mall and walk it helps.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
