I know what you mean I just got sleeved a week ago and it is tough but its not that your hungry at all its that in your mind your use to eating what you want and this is not the case anymore. I have to cook dinner for my husband and son and mom everyday and its tough to not include myself but I always think back that this is the choice I made to be healthy and to live a longer life than I would have. After I prepare their meal I sit down and eat a jello or popsicle with them just so feel like I am having dinner with them as well. I also want to share with you something that I found very nutritional, juicing. I was feeling so weak from just fluids so I went to Macys and purchased a juicing machine and let me tell you it would amaze you the things you can juice as well as the nutritional value you can get and also share with your family and friends and a feeling of satisfaction. Give it a try just make sure you get one that has at least 800 watts.

welcome!! Don't worry about the gain. You are packed with all the IV fluids that you received while in the hospital. I remember being hungry at first as well. All I could was think about food. I cried during TV commercials and when I smelled food in my house. But I am here to assure you, it will get better. I
learned about head hunger on this site, and it is stronger and more painful than physical hunger. Dehydration makes it worst. One member suggested that I sip on my water/ chrystal light to stay hydrated. That helped curb the edge of the hunger that I was feeling.
Stack up on Sugar free Jello, SF Popsicles and Chrystal light. Sip, slow and often and walk as much as you possibly can. Hang in there:)
