Welcome back head hunger

[Kspot42 49]

My head hunger has made a spectacular return. I know it's head hunger because, for example, I just finished 4 oz of Soup. And the only thing I could think about is crackers and then I WANTED crackers. I NEEDED crackers.

No clue why the craving is there nothing really happened I think it's actually boredom. I'm ready to go back to work but not until I can stay off the pain pills. I need to find a hobby.

I did go for a walk and while I was walking no cravings but I could only walk for like 15 minutes. Cravings came right back. I'm NOT hungry. I fact I'm almost too full because I drank some Water.

Any suggestions?

It is a challenge to fight the head hunger. Mine didn't return until I was about 6 months post-op. You did good by going for a walk; anything to stop thinking about food. For me, it helps if I keep my Protein intake as close to 100 grams/day as possible. I do supplement with powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein shakes, 1-3 per day and as long as I do that, my carb cravings stay at bay which is what most of my head hunger is wanting. Make any sense? Anyway, keep walking, sipping and work on finding that hobby - mine is reading fiction or being on the computer at home (even though I'm on one all day long at work).
