  1. Thanks missyjoy. May try the ice. Hunger is getting better. I bought some soups and jello from my surgeons office that have protein which helps and I think part of it is I am feeling better and can drink more. I was already on medicine for stomach thank goodness, so I never stopped taking it. I also cook for family, that makes it hard.
  2. I now know why I was having such a hard time. I was coming down with strep throat and a urinary tract infection at the same time . I have been on antibiotics and am doing much better and constantly drinking. I drink premier protein shakes. Chocolate is my favorite:). They have 30 grams of protein and 160 calories and they are premixed, so they taste better to me. My surgery was on July 23rd, two weeks ago today. I went for my check up today and have lost 12 pounds. I have to do liquids for 2 more weeks:( Ugh What shakes do you drink?
  3. Yes I am really trying to drink more protein today. Its so hard when you can't hold but an ounce to an ounce and a half every 15 minutes. You get up to do something and forget and cannot catch up later.Evening comes and you are so hungry !!! Also, still feel weak sometimes, so hard to do much exercise. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks
  4. Oh my gosh Me too! 7 days since sleeve and I have been starving at least 3 or 4. I have 3 more weeks of liquids Lord help me!! I thought we weren't supposed to be hungry. That is what I read or I wouldn't have chose this.
  5. I was sleeved this past Tuesday on July 23rd. I thought we wouldn't feel hungry, but I do. I also have a full feeling in my chest like a pill is stuck. Does anyone else have this?
