  1. I'm in the exact same boat. I was sleeved on Nov. 3rd. I was able to get about 4-5 bottles of Water down a day after 4 days and felt a strong hunger. Now I weighed myself one week from surgery and lost about 10lbs. I spoke with the dietitian about the hunger problems. She said that I should move ahead to the second step of eating soups and drinking Protein shakes. So I did. I'm eating about 700-900 calories a day and in the last four days I've actually gained a pound. I'm getting nervous myself and I started thinking I did this for nothing. When I eat soup within about 2 hours I'm hungry again. I tried calling my Dr.'s office yesterday but they were gone for the day. I guess I'm just telling you this because you are not alone. Sorry to say but you trouble brings me comfort knowing that I'm not alone and that this must be just temporary. I'm gonna try to get a decent walk or some sort of exercise in these next few days and hope that helps. Keep me updated please as I would like to know how you are progressing since we had are surgeries on almost the same day.
