I am nearly 3 months post op. I have been hungry every day. I had no trouble eating. Some things were too dense, so I avoided them (chicken, pork) But cottage cheese, eggs, meatballs, Protein Drink, almost anything else went down fine. Till yesterday. Yesterday I had no hunger. Now, I know I'm not sick. I feel healthy and not ill. But the thought of food makes my stomach turn. I am only able to eat maybe a spoonful or two, and I have to quit. Do you suppose it took this long for the Grehlin to leave my system? Any ideas are appreciated.

It happens. I still have times where several days go by and I have to force myself to eat. Then there are times where I feel like I could eat all day long and I have to restrain myself. Today has been one of those days. It's just the ebb and flow of things with the sleeve :)

babbs,

That could have been written by me. Some days I forget to eat till I get a headache or some reminder. Other days I feel hungry a short while after I've had a decent meal. I'm always trying to push Water also????

Still learning even years out. I would not trade this life for anything. Life is difficult enough without the burden of many many pounds!

@@wannaBthinsoon I was sleeved on April 24 th 2015. I have lost only 25 pounds since the morning I came home from the hospital. (200# to 175#). Can I ask, how much have you lost since you actually had the surgery? Thanks, Lynne.

      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?

      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.
