MoreganK reacted to ShapeShifter in Is This All Normal? What Am I Doing Wrong?
I am pre-op, but have read that the hunger can be stomach acid to be relieved by prilosec or something of that sort. Also, when you are hungry, drink water. It often is a signal that you are thirsty or dehydrated (that goes for pre-surgery hunger, too).
To avoid snacking, consider setting a schedule for consumption, i.e., your surgeon suggests 4 meals a day, so eat at 8am, 12pm, 4pm, 8pm (or whatever works for you, of course). If you feel hungry between those hours... drink water. Sometimes making rules to follow can help us follow our own guidelines, rather than being without boundaries.

i was told to either go brush my teeth (Nobody wants to eat after that), chew on the end of a straw or munch soft ice when I wanted to snack from boredom and I'm already halfway thru a box of straws and I'm still PRE OP. but I'm down over 10 pounds
