Try taking an acid reducer for the feelings of hunger you are experiencing. When I was newly post op, I often confused acid for hunger pains. I was like, I just had a Protein Shake 20 minutes ago, my stomach is the size of a peanut, how can I be hungry!? This helped a lot. As far as the rest of it goes, just hang in there. The first few weeks are the hardest, mentally and physically, in my experience. Little by little as time goes on, you will get to know your sleeve better, and tolerate real foods. Nutrition will get better, just stick to your surgeon's orders and you'll do great!

I wish I had an answer for you, but I don't. I'm 2 months post op and I'm hungry ALL THE FREAKIN TIME!

sugar free popsicles are what I use to fight my constant hunger. My nutritionist says my heavy exercise routine may be part of what drives my hunger. I don't know, but I'm definitely NOT gonna stop working out. I'm making too much progress to stop.

I am not physically.. But mentally hungry. I am having dreams about food. I woke up in the morning and thought I did not follow the eating protocol ..good that it was only a dream. Also, since I am ingesting only 200 to 300 calories per day..I cannot sleep. I don't have that fullness to make me sleep. I am 6 days post op. So I know my body is adjusting. But overall I'm doing great. I don't have a physical hunger appetite at all. And I was around food a lot today.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
