Today I feel like I did pre sleeve. I am starving and while I have controlled my hunger I feel I could eat everything in site. Is this normal?

How far out are you? Have you had any water? Many times, when I feel like I am 'starving' ... it's really thirst. Just a suggestion!

You need protein. You're probably starting on stage 2 now, right? What really helped me in soft foods was pureeing chicken (it sounds and looks gross, but if you add marinara sauce or something to it, it's pretty good!), or even tuna. Try to get maybe 2-3 oz in and if you're hungry later, eat again. Jello is good too...

Thanks. I have been on purée for a week now. I'm doing my best to get my Water and protein in, but I know I'm not hitting my goal. I am not eating anything bad for me, haven't cheated once. I liked it better yesterday when 3 bites made me full. Lol

This will sound strange, but my go to food on soft stage for protein, was SPAM. It's a little salty, soft, and I could chew it up completely. Good amount of protein. And scrambled eggs mixed and puréed with salsa.

Eggs are not my friend and neither is tuna. It's very hard bc they are easy to get protein.

If you have children you will relate to this. Sometimes when my kids were little and if the were sick they would want to eat which just made them more sick. They couldn't tell if they were hungry or if they had a stomach ache. Since this stomach is totally new to us maybe we are like kids in that we just haven't learned to tell the difference yet.

I think it was just my body adapting bc I don't feel like that anymore. Goodness was that a testament of my mind over stomach. I won!
