At 4 months post op I still do not have physical hunger, but my head hunger went crazy a week ago. I think I ate every carb I could lay my hands on. I read that sleeves should have a minimum of 100g of Carbs a day for the proper body function. I felt so bad though. I need to know if anyone else has had this attack before and did it negatively impact your future weight loss?

Haha - I have a carb attack quite regularly. I have never counted carbs, Protein, or anything else. My weight loss has gone as expected and I've not had any ill effects from my failure to count carbs. It's too bad that bread is so filling. I love it but can only eat a few bites. Not even gonna bother to count how many carbs in 3 bites of bread.

I log food. I watch but am not obsessive about my carbs. However my nutritionist recommended I keep calories low (currently between 700 -900) and carbs at no more than 50. I am vegetarian and my carbs can get a little higher. However they are from the plant based Proteins I eat. I avoid most "white" carbs like bread, pastas, white rice, crackers, etc.... One thing I have noticed is that those types of carbs can be like the never ending monster. If I have them I start to crave them. As long as I don't have them, I am fine. I also try to eat according to my day. A day like today that is a non gym mostly chill out day I eat lighter.

Had my surgery a little over 2 months ago and the carb cravings for the past week have been insane.
