I'm having trouble being hungry ALL THE TIME! I was expecting the "hunger" portion of my stomach to be gone, but I friggin stay hungry. I try to curb it with Water and sugar free popcicles, but this mess is hard!

I feel fine and I'm doing so well with the healing that my dr even released me to exercise. I started today. I'm hoping that exercise will help kill the hunger?

suggestions? solutions?

I have acid too. I tried zeigrid (sp) - the nurse recommended it. It has been excellent and better than all the others I tried.

Haven't lost any weight in almost a week... but I am trying to ignore that!

I am getting in my Protein but not sure about enough calories (I seem to get about 500 per day but I am trying to push that up.)

Glad to read all the posts here!

When you feel better you need to kick your cousins' butts for that BK run. They could've done that another time.

Exactly

Sleeved October 15

Start weight: 286

Surgery day weight: 256
Current weight: 236
Goal weight: 165

Down 50 lbs total.

Smooth sailing so far. Today is my one-month surgiversary! NUT told me yesterday that increasing my Protein (I'm rarely hitting 80 g, but close) and Fluid (rarely hitting 64 oz, but close) may result in faster weight loss.

I'm also researching moving from Synthroid to "desiccated thyroid." I'm reading that many people gain/retain weight on Synthroid.

Went to see my surgeon today for my one month post op appointment. Cleared to eat all (appropriate) foods now... So nice to be able to eat those dry roasted edamame/almonds etc.- missed my crunch! I've been reaching my Protein goal each day, maybe not drinking as much Water as I should though- probably 40-50 oz per day. Once I hit my puréed stage, weight loss has been really slow. They suggested that I up my calories from 650-750 to closer to 1000 calories per day. First time a doctor told me to eat more calories! Kind of surreal, lol. We'll see if that works.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
