[jessyk698 0]

Hi, can anyone suggest certain foods that help with the hunger?

Im still on mushy foods for about a month more.

Thank you so much.

It's frustrating.

I started having some hunger, and did have a few days that I felt i could eat more. I REALLY have to say though, that as crazy as it sounded to me when people said it, it is really true that if you take your antacid meds ,it helps the hunger stop!!! It is really your stomach acid making you feel hungry. Plus you do need to eat enough:) and that is hard when you aren't hungry!! All in all at almost 10 weeks out, it is a learning game daily!!

I know it may sound weird, but I was hungrier in my first two weeks than I am now. I really believe it is stomach acid and your healing stomach that mimics hunger in the beginning. Hang in there!

Ditto on the protein! Pea Soup, refried Beans, Protein Shakes, greek yogurt, scrambled eggs.Protein shakes are your best bet for filling you up.
