I am just a few days away from my 1 year anniversary. Still feel great. weight loss has slowed to a crawl but have lost 140 and only have another 12-15 to go so I can live with that. My question or issue of late I find myself hungry and snacking far more then I have. I am still making better choices of Snacks but some days I feel like I could eat all day. does this happen to many people and will it change back in time

happy surgiversary

congrats on losing 140 lbs +

great achievement

there have been times i wanted to eat more than i should

i think this happens to many (not all OP)

the way "it" will change back - is by getting back on program/maintenance

things will switch back to normal life (post sleeve)

once you and i want/make them

you can and will be successful!!

change comes with hard work and won't power

i won't eat this, i won't eat that - i won't i won't i won't!!!!

"just because you can, doesn't mean you should"

(eat a lot)

it's hard for "foodies" like me (you too?)

not to grab everything in sight :(

3+ years at GOAL

i choose to walkkkk/run away (abstain) from food at a party

can't afford to gain weight again as in my past life

neither can you

be strong and brave :rolleyes:

that's how you will/might stay "safe"

we've done it before

we can continue to eat correctly/wisely again

good luck

keep up the great job

kathy

congrats

Congrats on the weight loss, I do find that I snack more when I'm not preoccupied with other things. If I am on the go most of the day I forget to eat but if I'm just sitting and watching TV I find that I will snack more. For me it just depends on the day.

I am almost 10 months out and I could snack/eat all day. I notice at night I could eat more. I tend to pick slider foods. I fluctuate between 132-134. If I ever go over, I'll do a Protein day. I will never risk gaining back the weight. I would have to try really hard to gain weight...eat frequently and make poor choices consistently. I will always be a food addict and I still crave the same foods, but I can only eat them in small portions. Congratulations on your weight loss. You rock.

      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.
