Anyone hungry?



Recommended Posts

"Bandster Hell" :blush: is an understatement.. I called my Dr's nurse to ask her what I can do.. I have been taking the full 30 mins to eat.. I have increased my lunch and dinners to 4 oz and I added a snack between lunch and dinner and I think I am up to 120 oz of Water a day..and I am still starving.

I have been working out and when I track my calories food intake and exercise calories burned I am burning more calories then what I am eating and yet I think I am at a stand still on weight loss.. what is up with that!!!

My Dr's nurse said as long as I am not going over 4 oz on meals and choseing protien Snacks.. I should be ok. She said that it will be a long hard week until I go in on the 8th of June for my appt and first fill. But once I get the fill I will have restriction again. So I have to just keep that in mind and try to keep my self busy.. I think the busier I make my self the less I think about food and so it is not as bad.. So my plan is to spend the next week in a half at the gym and in the pool..And I am not weighing myself until I go to the dr's.. And just hope that I will have weightloss in the end.

Just have to stay positive!!! But I have to agree this is "Bandster Hell" fits well.....:blush:

      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.
