6 weeks out and hungry



Recommended Posts

I am a little over six weeks post op. I am hungry all the time. I am not getting enough Protein. 20-40 grams a day.

I am losing weight I just feel like I am eating all the time. I am using my fitness pal and staying around 1000 calories. I am just worried I will stretch my tummy out

Any one else experiencing this?

If you are eating 1000 calories and only getting up to 40 grams of Protein, I really encourage you to rethink your food choices. Eat more protein rich foods and less carbs and you will stay fuller longer ;)

I am 6 months out and barely get to 900 a day. Be sure and get your Water in. Thirst feels like hunger with the sleeve!

I know teh feeling sometime smy emotional eater wants to come out. Fluids help quite my stomach down but then sometimes I just don't eat enough and need some more food. I'm 5 weeks out and still learning how to eat properly ,its hard.

Odds are if you would get enough Protein you wouldn't feel hungry. Good Luck.

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

      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! 😞
