Has any one else noticed that some days your a bottomless pit and other days one bite and your PBing for hours.

What's up with that?

I have the same issue as well, some days it is all I can do to get some calories in and then others I am so hungry I can barely stand myself!

Of course the mornings difficult regardless, I am so tight I can only have my coffee for the first 2 hours after waking.

I have similar issues. I can honestly say I have only PB'd one time, but some days it can take a lot to fill me up and other days, I get full quicker, but..... It seems like I get hungry sooner if I get full quicker. I'm not sure if that's normal or not. I think I may need another fill. I've had 2 fills so far and I've got 6ml in a 14ml band.

I know where you're coming from also. It seems to be about every 3 or 4 days I could eat anything and everything. Other days it only takes a few bites. I posted about this about a week ago and got answers ranging from it could be hormones to not enough Protein, to not enough Fiber, etc. I think it's just that we are all so different that no one answer works for all of us. I have to wonder if maybe it's just our bodys' way of fighting to keep on the weight. We are eating so differently and maybe not getting enough nutrients that the body is saying "Whoa there, Feed me." Just a thought. Keep up the good work. Simone

      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.
