I Feel Like I Can Eat The World Some Days.

Ok, so not even going to hold back, ive been horrible at eating lately. Ive been on peanut butter, bananas, baked chips, sugar free candies, and rice cakes, and fruit, cheese. Of course not all in one day. But im hungry every 2 hours. If I dont eat ill feel super moody and want to eat a cow. Anyone ever get hungry?? I hate that I still feel hungry...i even try and do other things to distract myself from wanting to eat.past 2 weeks now ive lost only 2pounds. Bummer, hope im not over eating.

Have you been gettin your Protein in? That is what will keep you full the longest.

I am two weeks out and feel hungry too. And also feel like I could eat a lot! Say I have once slice of pizza and feel okay. Why am I not kneeling over to puke? Some days I can only have seriously three bites others it's like I eat normal. Ugh maybe were eating the wrong foods. Maybe were eating foods that aren't satisfying us. I know since I started my class internship I haven't eaten the best since drug reps bring in catered lunches three times a week!! Ugh it's up to us to get healthier and smarter. Also get plenty of water to help u stay full. Don't forget your protein. I know I lack with that.

I have to admitt, I need to take in more protein. Only doing one daily. But I drink a bunch of water, 60 oz daily at least. But ur right I need to intake more protein. Big sigh.

I get hungry 3/7 times a week.

Why are you eating the pizza. You have life altering surgery and the first thing you think to put in your mouth is an entire slice of pizza? The surgery is a TOOL

The way my doctor guides you is that you should be eating 3 square meals a day. You are to be eating enough to keep you full to the next meal. This is so you don't over eat and stay away from the snacking. If I feel hungry I have a few crackers and the hunger goes away. I also drink my 64 oz. of protein at 10:30 as a snack and I am stuffed until like 1 pm. You need to get your protein in on a daily basis IT IS A MUST... plus if you don't get your protein in you will loose hair and you don't want that to happen.

You should contact your doctor and/or nutritionist and have them give you some guidelines. When I was two weeks out I could not even think of food !!!

Being hungry means you are not getting enough protein in. I'm 6 months out and I am never hungry. I eat bcuz I have to.

I am 3 weeks out today i'm getting better with fluids eating a little bit but food does not interest me at all i have lost 33lbs in 3 weeks and stopped loosing so i know i need to increase protein and food intake im sure my body is in starvation mode..Might go to support group tonight we have several a month here in southeastern mass

Not me. But do you live in Pensacola? I see Dr. Lord did your surgery.

I just read your profile and see you do live here. That's cool that there is someone else on this board. I see you work in the medical field. I do also. Trying to find a job. Know anyone who might be hiring?

Yes I do live in pensacola.

Ok. I'm 4 months out and yes, I get hungry. Last night I had a grilled chicken breast and some broccoli and I was ravenous within 2 hours. We had went to the circus and I was so flipping hungry I bought an over priced box of stale popcorn and ate close to 1/2 of it.
