Sorry to hijack but I'm curious I've read that VSG removes hunger hormone but what can you tell me about RNY is your hunger same or different since surgery even in the first few months??? Tnx

I had my RNY bypass October 10th 217. No hunger as of this date. I have lost 156 lbs so far. I am 13 pounds from goal.

You haven’t been hungry since 10/17/2017??? 😳

That I said correct. Some people's hunger hormone returns, some people's don't. Mine could come back, but it hasn't yet. I'm taking full advantage of that.

Keep up the good work Laura, you look amazing!

My hunger has been only emotion driven. Actual hunger is basically gone. I don’t get actually hungry for like ten hours.

Time for an update! I know many people don’t eat Pasta but here is my meal prep of chicken, Tomato pesto, spinach, fresh parsley in a garlic butter sauce. I got 15 servings out of it and it goes in the freezer portioned out so I can just grab one and go whenever.

Here are my Baritastic measurements. I’m down from 274 inches to 239 inches overall.

I got my Protein chips and bars from bariatricpal today. The chips are super great and I also had the almonds today which are so filling. I wish they didn’t cost quite this much! I’m out of my shakes, waiting for them in the mail. I will be getting on the scale tomorrow, my batteries for the scale finally came in. I have personal training tomorrow, I’m doing well with that. I’m losing about 2.7lbs a week but I should be losing about 3. I eat a little more calories that I should. I’m also having a lot of carbs. No sugar but a decent amount of carbs in addition to my Protein. So, that’s my update.

Just remember how much weight that is. Pick up a lb of butter and you are losing almost 3 of those a week!
