I just recently had surgery a month weeks ago and some days I still feel so hungry. Is this normal?

[MargoCL 677]

Can you share what your daily meals look like, are you drinking enough Water? Water does curb your appetite.

I had my surgery on 8/20, the days I struggle or slack with my water, I find I'm more hungry.

I have egg whites with crumbles sausage, sometimes yogurt
Now that I think about it it might be because I’m not getting enough Protein

[MargoCL 677]

You should be eating at least 60g of Protein a day. As you're a week behind me... working towards 90g (at least that's what my surgical team suggested)

[MargoCL 677]

Is that ALL you are eating per day?

I have 4 - 6 small meals per day to meet my Protein needs and cals fall around 600-700

[crivera7777 6]

Just the thought of eating that much, lord have mercy

[MargoCL 677]

I'm eating 2-3 oz per serving. And cals are up to 100 per serving. You need to get your Proteins in

I think I’m close to @MargoCL in surgery dates and I’m striving for 60 - 80 g of Protein and usually hitting 600 calories. 80 +oz of Water daily. And I’m eating small meals 5 - 6 times a day.
