I'm hungry often because my metabolism is super charged. I'm an active person. I eat every 2 hours, dense Protein. If you eat carbs you will just want more carbs Since we can eat endless amount of carbs, starting carbs is a bad idea. Are you a vegan? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted May 6, 2017 Google search genpro, is is snake oil with little to no scientific proof to support their claims of being able to defy all known physics. 2 Newme17 and GBLady41 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Honeybee17 65 Posted May 6, 2017 I don't think that's the same thing. This was referred by my bariatric surgeon. It is called GENEPRO and is sold by GNC. Look at the GNC website.

Honeybee17 65 Posted May 6, 2017 Have you seen the Protein Shakes at costco with 30 grams of Protein & only 1 carb? No, I haven't. Do you have the name of it? I would like to search it. I'm not a member of Costco, but have friends who are. I like the idea of my protein being flavorless because then I can put it in anything, plus my husband can use it to when we work out.

LIA-70 136 Posted May 6, 2017 Hey, im 4 months out and i can relate. Theres days when im on overdrive that im famished and want to eat a horse. Takes alot to stick to my diet. I drink the Premier Protein shakes from bjs/costco. 30g Protein each whenever that happens n it helps curb my appetite a bit. Good luck.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using BariatricPal mobile appI was using genepro but my NUT said stay away. It's false advertising. And that it's impossible to get 32 G protein in I tbls. I went back to injury unflavored. Little flavor but not bad at all. 1 Sleeveforme2017 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cajun1 6 Posted May 7, 2017 Gene pro does have a lot of bad publicity and several pending lawsuits. I use paleo egg white powder I just put a 2 tbs on my pureed food or in my yogurat I can add more. In my Protein Drinks I had 4 tbs 30grams is 25grams of protein., and only 108 calories 1 carb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Acid can mimic hunger. At 9 weeks all of the nerves are not even reconnected to your stomach for you to feel hunger. Your body doesn't know the stomach is reduced yet and is still producing acid for a full size stomach. I'm almost 2 years out and I have to go almost 24 hours without eating to feel hungry. The entire first year I had zero physical hunger 2 Fresh_Start17 and MarinaGirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
