6 weeks out and hungry!

I am six weeks out and I am getting hungry more than I thought I would. I have added a few new foods and I am tolerating them well. However, it seems like I have met a plateau or something as my weight does not seem to be going down. I am walking and tire flipping. What should I do?

I have the same problem and I'm 18 months out. I graze all day long (I have a desk job) pretzels, chips, Snacks, I tend to eat something salty and then want something sweet. This goes on all day.

I have lost about 100 lbs but I want to eat all the time. Granted I cant eat much at one time but when I am full it only last for an hour or so and I want to eat again. I know its mental hunger, that Im not really hungry, But I have never had any will power, thats why I got the surgery to force me to stop eating so much. That part worked, but the mental part is still with me.

I would hit plateaus and stay at the same weight for a couple of months, then it would drop 10 or 15 lbs then plateau again, it was very frustrating.

But then t I am the model of what NOT to do as a WLS patient. I didn't change my eating habits other than the amount I ate and I do absolutely no exercise at all.

But I have still managed to lose 100 lbs.

I'm in the same boat. I'm 5 weeks out . I get all my protein and even go over. Average around 100-120 g of protein but I feel like I can eat lots of food. I'm trying to focus on more water. I don't exercise as much as I would like too. I am in a stall between 240 to 237 it moves back and fourth
