Had my sleeve sept 10 and I feel like I can eat anything I'm hungry. Help!

are you truly hungry or are you mind hungry??

10 days post op, I was still on a liquid diet about to enter the pureed stage. You might be tired of liquids.

I agree it's your head that's hungry ..I was sleeved sept 10th also

I was sleeved Sept 10th as well. I totally understand.. at this point I am already eating lots of tomato soup and also moderate (and very chewed up amounts) of cottage cheese.

Yes. I get this way, especially if I've had more carbs. Protein helps me fight hunger. Also, I'm not working again yet so I have a lot of time to think. That's bad. I do think the pouch empties fast. Small meals a day are good.

I believe that some of us have true hunger. I started getting hungry on day 10. I'm bummed I'm not 1 of the lucky ones that don't feel hunger. I also don't believe its acid, as some suggest. I take a PPI 2x a day and I've been feeling hunger for 46 yrs, I know what it feels like.

Some of us r lucky, some aren't. It doesn't take much to satiate me but then I'm hungry 90 mins later. Thank God I can only eat so little when I do eat...

Thank you all for the support I can't just give up on something so life changing.

That has been my experience too. I never had a reprieve from hunger, I've just learned to live with it. Some days are easier than others.

I have not been sleeved yet, but my main reason for wanting the sleeve is because I constantly feel hungry. I am hoping the sleeve will help curve this craving, but luckily my doc is making me really work on what I am eating now so that after the sleeve I have a foundation to work with. Good Luck, I really hope this is a phase for you and it will slowly dissipate. I can really relate to hunger issues.

I was STARVING week 2 and also weak and very tired. I was supposed to hold off on liquid protein until day 15, but I couldn't do it so I added very watered down Premier protein shake -2 oz 3 times per day and this made me feel WAY better. I was missing the protein. I was not one of the lucky ones that got my hunger removed with my stomach, but 3 months out and a cheese stick is enough for hours so that is AWESOME! It changes a lot once you move to mushies because once you are getting some real food there is definitely more satisfaction.
