I feel sooo hungry- I really want some real solid food...anyone else feel my pain!?

I am religiously following the doctor's orders and I have my first post op appt this friday (sleeved on the 26th)- and i'm anxious to progress to the next stage- I'm getting in all my protein and water...but i still feel hungry :/

I will start my purée diet on the 19' date=' I will be 21 days post-op by then , I'm sick of the shakes, so ready for some taste of real food.[/quote']

Trust me, you soon get sick of purees too. Im one week in on puree and counting the minutes to soft foods. In fact, last night I had 2 cream crackers with butter. I chewed them to death so by the time I swallowed they were basically pureed but oh, how nice it was to bite and chew!

I'm now on pureed foods and finally able to calm the hunger with something other than a Protein shake- though i still have to drink them to get all the protein requirement in- i'm surprised with how little i'm eating- and feeling satisfied! Sounds like a lot of us on this app have that same concern about stretching our stomaches! How are you doing???

How are all aug 26th sleevers doing????

Not me. I have been so hungry all the time and was able to eat more than I should without discomfort. However, after 3 days on puree it all started to settle down and now things are very different. Am not nearly as hungry and eating less. The dog is loving it and sits by me at meal times as she knows she'll get half! Lol!

Lol my dog is enjoying it too
