How are you doing? I am having one of my hungry all day days. I hate these. All I think about is what I can have. Gotta get over these. Drinking my Decaf tea like crazy. 34 ounces down and working on second 32 oz. I'll be up all night! Hope you are doing well. Just checking in.

Hi I'm doing good! Lost another 7lbs as of yesterday at my doctors office. I hate those hungry all day days! Spoke to my surgeon about the hunger pains and he told me there is a pill that he can prescribe but wants to wait till I see him again in 3 months. He feels it's to soon to tell if it's reflux or head hunger.

Congrats on the loss. That'a great!!! I know my hunger is head hunger. If we are out and busy I rarely eat until we get home at night. I do drink my shake and eat at least a yogurt. But, like I said today is one of those days. I am really happy for your loss.

I usually have coffee and then an hour later I have a Protein drink for Breakfast. I'm on the the 3 small meals and 2 Snacks also. I have a hard time getting all my Protein and Water in. I take a powder Vitamin that I buy at my surgeons office. Hope that helps.

@@mom2hounds thank you! I was so afraid that I hadn't lost any weight because I'm so hard on myself. You should ask your doctor about the pill they prescribe for the hunger.

I think I will but I don't see him until Aug. Some days are a breeze and others are so hard. Maybe it is just me. I am just really happy for you. I too am very hard on myself, sometimes I worry myself till I get sick to my stomach, such a dork. I just never ever want to go back to where I was. It was totally unhealthy and I look at pictures now and am totally embarrassed at how heavy I was. But, on a better track now

      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.
