I had my surgery last Wed., Nov. 7. All went well, but today I am starving ! My stomach is rumbling. I have had 2 Protein Drinks today, 1/4 cup of low sodium chicken broth, 1 sugar free pudding, and 1 sugar free Jello. Not as much Water as I need but I am trying. I was hoping I wouldn't be so hungry after the surgery. Any suggestions?

I guess your mileage may vary.

I had a bit of that, try that Tomato Soup or try a Soup that is a tiny be thicker then broth... the juice of a minestrone soup was great for me.

I know how you feel... We are sleeved twins & today I not sure if I was hungry or just wanted to eat... But I am on Clear Liquids for the next 2 weeks and I think this may be harder than I thought... But we will over come this. Stay strong!

The first weekend is when my hunger hit too- for me it was mostly being over the sweet everything. I made "cream of chicken" Soup with the Unjury chicken powder and skim milk and added a splash of v8 - it got me through while keeping me on my liquids.< /p>

I'm a 11/7 sleever too & today I felt hungry. So before I made Breakfast for company that came to see me a sipped on my Protein Shake & then I was full :-) I can only get down one shake a day. I Hope this coming week I can get down 2. Maybe try pudding? I had a half a cup of pudding n wasn't hungry after that either. But I kind of think it was mental more than anything but I just said to myself oh I'll hv food soon just a lil bit n I'll get to taste things one day just won't over eat. I'm so happy! This was such a great decision! Congrats to all and best wishes as we train our new tummys :-)

i thought this was a mental thing too until the pain woke me up in the middle of the night. actually its been the past 3 nights since i been home from the hospital. a few nights i got nausea from the pain. had sips of Protein Shake went back to bad. tonight i tried crystal light 2 sips of Protein Shake and still not feeling satisfied and tried going back to sleep only to keep experiencing the 'hunger pain'. i know its not my head because i dont want to consume anything at all! i will try some sugar free Jello and try 2 get my ass back to bed lol just confused....

Oh my I am so glad I am not the only one..........sleevie nicks is constantly rumbling and gurgling I feel like I can eat a horse......so hungry. In order not to start any bad habits I drink Isopure Protein Water at inappropriate eating times and it does the trick. But wow...I am on. Full liquids and cheated last night with some mash potatoes they went down just fine. How are they any diff from cream of wheat which is on the full liquid diet? Any way I also get sharp what I call gas bubbles on occasion anyone else? I was sleeved on november 6.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
