one month after the surgery, and I feel hungry too fast and I'm eating more than my friends doing the same surgery!

Gastric sleeve

Give it another week or two. I don't know where you're at stage wise with food. I went through a period of intense hunger but it passed. I'm at 6.5 weeks out.

Everyone heals at different paces and have different feels of restriction. It doesn't matter if you are eating more than your friends, it only matters if you are eating more than your surgeons plan. Talk with him or her about it as they can best provide feedback for your expectations.

The thing is i can eat bread and i feel normal

Bread will not help with hunger. I am almost 6 mths out and haven't tried it yet because it won't help me lose weight. At 4 weeks out, you are still healing and your stomach nerves are not functioning properly to help you feel fullness. Are you on solid foods? Dense Protein? If so, eat dense protein first. Feeling normal is the goal. Everyone tolerates different foods differently.

I think.the best thing to do is measure your food and stop eating when it's gone. Just because you can tolerate more doesn't indicate you NEED to eat more. Make sure you are eating the Protein, veggies and fruits suggested. I understand sleeve I'd different in that you guys don't dump. Eating bread probably won't make you feel bad. It will only prevent you from meeting the goals you have set for yourself. So again this becomes a case of yes you can, but does that mean you should? Why not save that knowledge for special occasions. Holidays and when you're out with friends. Have some of those sometimes foods that we all enjoy. Maybe you can strike a good balance and feel normal by allowing yourself to make good choices on a regular basis while still occasionally enjoying things that aren't suited for daily indulgence. Good luck!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
