I'm not that far out but so far I am feeling the same way. My hunger is actual hunger and I thought the sleeve was supposed to take some of my hunger away.

The thing is that it's not head hunger and I am actually hungry. I can tell when it's head hunger and when it's actual hunger. My stomach is rumbling

I am 12 days post op from getting the gastric sleeve and I need some tips on what to do. The surgery did not take away my hunger or my cravings. I am craving everything and just want a burger. I know it's mind over matter but I am seriously sick of the protein shakes! All the protein shakes are all starting to taste and smell the same. I am literally counting down when I can eat again I hate soup so I'm just drinking crystal light added to my water and caramel protein shakes and It doesn't help that people in the home get to eat solid and that thanksgiving is coming up but by thanksgiving I will be on pureed food. When I look at some of the forums I don;t understand why everyone pre op and post op diet is different. Some people can have puree on the 5th day and some can have solid way sooner than others I guess it just depends on the surgeon and the year. Gosh I am so hungry

My anxiety is at an all time at the moment. My surgery date isnt until October 30th and I start my liquid diet October 16th. I'm not stressing about the surgery but the weigh in with my Surgeon. She wants to do a weigh in on Tuesday October 17th but the probably is I gained 15 lbs!!! I gained all that weight in 5 days. There are a lot of factors... 1) I didn't drink any water for 3-4 days 2) My period has been on and off for 2 weeks because the birth control in my arm was expiring so I got a new one put back in 3) stressed 4) lack of sleep and have been sleeping late. I know you can gain some weight from water retention, being on your menstrual and being stressed out but 15 pounds?! This is really bad timing. If im not the same weight or have lost anything that means my surgery will be postponed and that isn't an option for me. I plan on starting my liquid diet a little bit in advanced ( Sunday 10/15 ) This has to be all water weight but i don't know if it's possible to lose 15 pounds in 3 days. This is all just bad timing
