How many weeks out are you. Is it real hunger like your stomach growls or emotional hunger out of habit? I never ever feel hunger but at times my brain says Eat... Soft solids fill me up way faster than shakes or purees. Maybe just focus on the foods that fill you up quickly so you eat less.

I didnt want to eat anything for a few weeks after surgery. I had zero hunger. I had to make myself take sips of liquids & Protein Shakes for the first few weeks. It gradually got more normal after about week 2 or 3

No issues with mine. Took the meds as prescribed & got lots of rest. I was actually up walking around the night I had surgery talking to the nurses [emoji3]

Question for all my sleeve peeps! Some days I am hungry & want to eat all day (and I am able to eat small amounts frequently). Today is one of those days. On the other hand, there are days when i can barely take more than a few bites & get full almost immediately. Has anyone else experienced this?

I still feel hungry sometimes. My surgeon tells me it's normal. It's a very different type of hunger but hunger for sure. Usually it happens when I go to long without eating (which happens WAY easier now)!

I take Omeprazole. Without it it I have reflux so bad I cant even keep Water down. Don't freak out about losing a specific amount of weight in a self defined time. Everyone's body is different & will lose differently. You hot this!

It gets easier! I've found that if I add something to my Water (crystal light, etc) I can drink it much easier. This was a weird development for me because I've always liked water & been a big water drinker. But hey....whatever works!

I had depression/regret about 3 weeks out. Just stay strong. It will pass. Find a strong support group. Does your surgeon over groups?

Keep it up! Pre-OP diet was the hardest for me. I had to keep some kind of liquid handy at all times. And chew gum.....

Hi everyone! I had my surgery done 7 weeks ago. Does anyone have recommendations on cookbooks or recipes?
