2 weeks post op and have not gotten hungry once!



Recommended Posts

I am 2 weeks post op and I have yet to feel hungry. I eat a little here and there just because I have not ate much at all. They say I need 1000 calories a day and I barely got 400 yesterday. Is this normal for week 2? I am trying to get all the feelings so I know what to look forward too. :w00t:

I was the same way until the 3 1/2 week point. Now I get hungry after 3 hrs. It sucks! I do keep losing weight though, just not as rapid as before. So I guess it's not too bad. I go for my first fill in 2 weeks and I get to start solid food next week, so hopefully I stay full longer. Good luck!

P.S. how do you get the weight ticker on there?

Thanks for the info.

To get the ticker on there. Go to tickerfactory.com and set up a ticker that you like then copy and paste the web address under Edit Signature.

You should feel very fortunate if you have not been hungry. I am 2 weeks out and I have been starving . I am dealing with it, and will get through it but to not be hungry must be amazing. Good luck with everything.

This is post band day 16 for me and I am rarely hungry. The first week I lost about 10 pounds but this last week not one even though I am eating less than 1000 calories a day.

I am almost 3 months post-op, and am almost never hungry, evept when I experience 'head hunger' when there's something specially good to eat in the house. I'm so glad for not having experienced Bandster Hell yet.

      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.
