KimTriesRNY 1,853 Posted December 18, 2017 I’m two weeks post op bypass and I get hungry. Some posts say it’s normal to not be hungry for months. I think we are all individuals, some of us will be hungry earlier than others. 1 Creekimp13 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creekimp13 5,840 Posted December 18, 2017 I was freaking starving. Not like...stomach rumbling....but like my head hurt and I felt woozily, low blood sugar, just exhausted and needing fuel. I'm two weeks out, eating a bunch of terrific soft foods...getting about 1000 calories a day. I feel fantastic...like my old self with even more energy. No nausea, everything is going down well. You're in the hard spot. The sun is on the horizon. You've just got to hold out a little longer and drink your Protein for a bit longer. Let that tummy heal. You've been through too much to risk it on something naughty. Won't be long now! PS...if you get so desperate you want to cheat....at the very least, pick something from the whole liquids menu....the next step. Don't skip too far ahead and don't go crazy and eat a chicken strip. A little yogurt or some thinned down cream of wheat. Don't go nuts. And it's best to hold on and do things by the book. You can do this! 3 Zoftig_Girl, kelliekell and YummyMummy303 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newme69 18 Posted December 18, 2017 12 days post surgery. I'm not really stomach hungry, I guess I'm head hungry. Still on full liquids. Hoping to skip purée straight to soft. I know how all of you feel. 1 YummyMummy303 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katherine thompson 6 Posted May 3, 2018 Protein truly makes you feel full. Even Protein Powder with Water. With milk it seems really rich and you get additional protein from milk.Sent from my SM-J327P using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magpie26 244 Posted May 4, 2018 12 days post surgery. I'm not really stomach hungry, I guess I'm head hungry. Still on full liquids. Hoping to skip purée straight to soft. I know how all of you feel.As much as you are tempted to, I wouldn't jump lol! I'm only a few days ahead of you but blended is better (I guess) than liquids. I am totally hungry too but now I'm on blended and my dietician said I can have scrambled eggs (with cheese!!) tuna. At least it's not shakes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Normaj3443 40 Posted May 4, 2018 Does anyone get a Headache after drinking the Premier Protein shakes? I will feel great all day until I drink one of those and about 5 to10 minutes after I get a headache.Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted May 4, 2018 You might be sensitive to the artificial sweeteners or something else in the it. Maybe the whey Protein? Might have to switch to a soy or plant-based one. I have svelte myself, it's soy-based not the 30 gr,protein but still very nice.😝 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
