I'm starvvvving! Like all the time lately. I KNOW some of it is head hunger, but a lot of it is not. Anyone have any suggestions for staying full in between meals/snacks?

How far post op are you?

3 months...

I think this is mainly head hunger. A good way to tell is if you drink water and the feeling of hunger goes away.

Things I snack on are

Nuts

Pretzels

Goldfish

Cheese it's

Pop corn

I really like things that are crunchy. I also tend to have cycles. I really crave certain things and it change every few months. Right now I love pretzels. Last month it was cheese its.

I think mine may be PMS as well because all I want is salt and chocolate haha ... I did an overhaul on my lunch tomorrow and its basically ALL Protein with very very minimal carbs. Hoping that helps to ward off any hunger pangs I have been experiencing! Lol *fingers crossed*

Really struggling with the salt too. I think I need to clean out my environment. I can't be doing this every month!

Dont worry, real hunger also returned around month 3 for me. I freaked out as most people dont get hungry after RNY. Was mine broken??

I dont know what it is but i have made peace with it. I dont think it is headhunger - although i do get that still sometime but i can differentiate between it now.

I upped my Protein and it helped a lot. Problem was i think i didnt really keep tabs on how much protein i am consuming and got in waay to little.

Perhaps the case with you as well?

Huh? I haven't felt hungry since my surgery on 5-14-13. Don't know what is it to be hungry anymore.
