Hunger pains?



Recommended Posts

I woke up super hungry today. I'm having actual hunger pain. I already ate so much today and the hunger pang is still here. I thought maybe its heart burn so I took 2 tums and omeprazole still feeling the pains. I dont want to overeat bit I feel so hungry? Anyone ever experience this? (I'm 2 yrs+ PO sleeve)

Hahaha! I could have written this yesterday! So I let myself eat healthy dense Protein. For some reason, I'm craving cottage cheese, too! I had 109g of protein yesterday! OMG! LOL.

But today, I'm not very hungry! So it comes and goes. When I'm truly hungry, I eat. But I won't let myself eat "crap" empty food during those times.

Go eat a hardboiled egg! Or meat of some kind! ((hugs)) Also, lots of sugar in your guacchang sauce usually...so you could be having a blood sugar roller coaster.

Is that like gochujang sauce? I love gochujang sauce! I love that sweet, hot and fermenty flavor. I put a bit of it on almost everything now.

Look at the sugar content. I guess you just have to decide how or if it affects your weightloss, satiety, or hunger level. IFIFYM’s!

Starting to think its heart burn the meds seemed to have kicked in and the "hunger pain" is pretty much gone. I looked through yesterday's menu and couldn't find anything that may have triggered this. Will have to put it a really hard work out at the gym soon to burn off the extra calories I ate today and will do a 16-8 fast the next couple of days. Thankfully I didn't overdo it too much, and ate foods that are "on my plan"

I get this terribly at times and have to take a prilosec. That seems to sort me out.

I'm terrible with meds I dont even take Vitamins (gasp) they make me puke I've tried many types and companies. Luckily last time I checked my blood all my levels were great. I guess I'll have to be more proactive and start back on anti acids.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
