Have anyone else experienced being able to eat more on some days and on others only able to eat a few tablespoons and be full?

Some days I eat, some days I am not hungry. I think the best answer is to just eat healthy. Good luck!!

It depends on what I eat. If I eat chicken breast, I might eat a few bites and be full. If I am eating Soup I can eat a small bowl and be happy. I run a home daycare, and if lunch gets crazy I forget to eat, and sometimes for dinner I might just have a string cheese and be full. I have to make myself eat a spoonful of Peanut Butter before bed because I haven't got enough calories for the day. I am almost 8 months out and I still have days where I only get 700-800 calories in because I simply forget to eat or am not hungry.

You are not alone there. Some days I seem to be really hungry, some days not so much. I just stick to my plan and go with healthy choices it`s all is good.

When I'm out and about, I set my cell phone alarm, so I am reminded to eat. After all of these years, I still do not get hungry and if I'm busy, I just don't. But later either that day or the next I will feel fatigued. That is when I remember that I didn't eat. Setting my cell alarm helps keep me on track.

      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.
