I don't use anything artificial to curb my hunger. I still concentrate on dense Protein first, then veggies (raw carrots or broccoli fill me up quickly). I'm satisfied by the time I finish my 4-6 oz of protein and a couple of bites of raw veggies. I love steamed broccoli as well, and I can usually only fit two or three pieces of that after my protein. :)

There is nothing wrong with taking a supplement to curb your hunger. You have to figure out if its real hunger or head hunger.

With that said I personally wouldn't take an appetite suppressor, although there is nothing wrong with them. I think you should embrace your appetite and start using that hunger to charge up your metabolism. All these low calories doctor prescribed diets are killing sleeved members metabolisms and its causing people to stall in weight loss, destroy their metabolism and keep you hungry... its a recipe for disaster and is not sustainable long term.

Read up on how to boost your metabolism. I was eating less than 800 calories and stalling every other week. over the last 6 weeks I have slowly increase my calories to boost my metabolism. I am loosing more now at 1800cal a day then I did 6 weeks ago at 800cal. I get to eat more food and use my appetite to help me continue to lose and have shorter stalls.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
