Sooo Hungry!



Recommended Posts

I’m 3 and a half weeks post sleeve and sooo hungry for real food!! Also I barely get 1.5 liters of Water all day, but when I eat- I don’t feel full.

Are you waiting 30 mins after eating before drinking? If not you're probably flushing the food through the intestines causing you to want to eat again.

Yes, I wait 30 minutes before and after eating. I drink two Bariatric Advantage shakes a day. I walk 3.5 miles every morning. I’ve had 5 whole wheat ritz, a scrambled egg, 1/4 cup of edamame, and two tablespoons of ranch style Beans. Not all at once!!
some days I can’t get my stomach to stop rumbling with hunger and some days I can go all day without eating.
so frustrating!

re: the lack of full feeling - you won't feel it for awhile. 1) your nerves are still healing 2) you'll feel restriction once you start eating solid food

This week I've been experiencing the same thing as you and I was sleeved on 3/3/20. Hydration is a difficult task for me and I loved plain Water prior to surgery, I don't know when this is going to be better. I'm trying really hard every day to meet my hydration goals and Protein Drinks are now upsetting my stomach. I'm back to tge clear Protein Isopure and ugh!!! I'm in a stall, I'm really hungry for real textures of food and I have to work on this darn insomnia. I have faith that this is just a moment that will get better

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
