4 days Post Op hunger

[karamonger 0]

I'm feeling hungry and I think it's because I'm a little bored. I have noticed, at the end of the night, the roof of my mouth is raw. I don't know if it's from all of the sugar-free things I've been trying/drinking.

I'm on the smooth Soup stage, Clear Liquids, full Protein Drinks. Could I have a scope of Peanut Butter? Other than my mouth issue, I feel great.

Here's a funny thing I learned. Most times that 'hunger' you're feeling is actually thirst. Try drinking a little more and it should subside. Also, the roof of your mouth being raw may also be because you're dehydrated. It happens.

Also, I wouldn't try Peanut Butter. I was told to avoid all nuts and nut butters for the first 3 months because your stomach will not like it. At all.

If you were prescribed an antacid, take it, even if you don't have heartburn or acid reflux symptoms. My surgeon that acid in your stomach can mimic hunger and it has certainly help me!

How about sugar free popsicles to soothe your mouth?
