    Wtf?

    We have to limit our portions so we dont stretch out the pouch. Dont you feel full after 1/2 cup. I feel full but after 2 hrs Im hungry again.Plus it really does help us for future adjustments. Because we wont beagle to even eat 1/2 cup at first. At least this is what I have heard from co workers who have had the surgery. It will better..... Any walking really helps.........

    Wtf?

    Good Morning, I am still on mushie and also very hungry. I am eating about 1/2 cup of food every 2hrs. When two hours comes I am starving. Iam making good choices. 1 egg in am,protein drink,yogurt,cottage cheese, I have processed chicken and mixed with mashed potatoe and on the side a little butternut squash. That was all a total of 1/2 cup. I am walking about 5 1/2 miles aday. But I spread it out once in the am and pm. That really helps keep my mind off being hungry. Where is your kidney pain? I have a pain on my left side in front that really bothers me when I walk. Dr. said it was muscle tissue from the port.
