So Darn Hungry



Recommended Posts

For the first time since i have been banded in August 2010, i have regained 2lbs. But that is ok, i can handle 2 lbs, the problem is that i am soooooooo darn hungry! I have been feeling like this for about 2 weeks, or right after the holiday! I did great for the Thanksgiving weekend. Now i feel like i can eat a whole person if they were on my plate! And to make matters worse i am not scheduled for a fill until Dec 20th!!!! HELP!!!!!

Call your doctor and tell them you need in sooner. If what you're feeling is actual hunger, then your band needs to be a bit tighter.

I was banded July 30th and I go through stages of being ravished!! I just had a really bad week of bein starving a couple weeks ago right before my 3rd fill. It really is hard but like Elfie said you need another fill. My doctor wouldnt do fills but every 6 weeks and wouldnt budge on that rule and I am even selfpay. If you can call them and get in sooner definitly do that. If not, just try to eat as healthy as you can and exercise if you are able to help. I am not sure how many fills you have had but I finally got my 3rd fill last week and it made a huge difference in my hunger!! hang in there!!

Hey guys, I went to the Dr. today and he agreed that i needed a fill. I have had 4 fills including today and a total of 5.5cc's so we will see. I was also told to watch my carbs. Now i am looking for good low carb recipes, any suggestions?

Thanks guys

This is where I've gotten a lot of my recipes. I like the fact that she comments on how they came out, whether they need to be tweaked, etc.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
