I am 7 weeks post op and i have been eating just about what ever I want to since week 4. That is healty stuff. But it seems that I am hungry like every 2 to 3 hours. I feel like im eating all the time now. I cant eat large amounts like before my surgery. And suggestions on what I may need to do.

I am the same way and I was sleeved July 2nd but drink water first and see if the hunger pains subside. I am trying to eat 3 meals a day...not any more than that...I can't eat a lot either.

I'm 10 weeks post-op, and eat 3 "meals", plus 2 snacks...so I'm eating, as you say, every 2-3 hours, in VERY small amounts. Even with feeling like "I'm constantly eating," the reality is, I'm only eating between 550 and 650 calories/day...mostly protein (75-90 grams/day), and very low carbs (fewer than 30 grams/day). As long as your following your guidelines (amazing how we all have a different set!!), you should be ok. Best of luck!

What type of "meals" are you eating and snacks too?

For Breakfast I typically have 8 oz of Muscle Milk Lite. (100 calls, 6 g carbs, 15 g protein)

For lunch I'll have 1/4 cup of tuna fish, with 1/4 cup fat-free cottage cheese, or 2 TBSP hummus with 5 or 6 baby carrots. Other options are 2 oz deli turkey, ham, or chicken, with cottage cheese, or hummus.

For dinner I'll have 2 oz of fish, or some other "dense" meat (pork chop, chicken, etc), with a little (less than 1/4 cup) of veggies. (An example...tonight I had 2 oz of deli turkey, 1/8 cup green Beans, 1/8 cup cooked carrots, and 2 beets. I ate all the meat, all but 3 of the green beans and carrots, and couldn't eat any of the beets.)

For Snacks I'll have hummus and baby carrots (if I haven't had them with a meal), deli meat, part of a Quest Protein bar (maybe 1/4), 8 oz of Muscle Milk Lite, Gelatein 20 (a high-protein gelatin), 3 or 4 whole-grain crackers with a small wedge of spreadable low-fat cheese....something high in protein, or, at least, low-carb.

Reality is, I'm just not able to eat that much in one setting. In order to meet my protein requirements, my focus has to be on getting protein....with small amounts of veggies mixed in for variety.

sounds good thanks for the ideas.
