I have noticed that I am getting really hungry in the late afternoon and early evening. I think I am going to change drinking my protein shake from first thing in the morning to mid afternoon -- hoping to not get so hungry. Any other suggestions?

What is helping me is eating soup, it is so filling. I use the light soups and add a boca burger, chopped up. You won't be able to finish it. The boca burger is only 80 cals and 14 gms of protein, and the broth is almost nothing in calories.

You are a month past surgery so you should be able to eat mushie foods now. Mix up some tuna, or chicken salad. You will get full from just a few bites. They have tiny cans of chicken salad already made too. I ate a lot of that stuff in the beginning.
