Do protein shakes leave you too hungry?

I usually have 2 or sometimes 3 powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein shakes a day. Love them, and they fill me up. But, as they are liquids, I tend to get hungry sooner rather than later. Is it possible that shakes are not the best idea since they do run through you pretty quickly? I'm happy on shakes plus one protein meal (usually dinner) but I often feel the hunger and also have to fit in a small yogurt or cottage cheese. I was really expecting never to feel hungry again with this surgery.

Hunger still happens. I just fill up easily if I follow the rule of Protein first and stay full the longer I wait to drink after I eat.

If Protein shakes are not working try solids.

I have 2 shakes a day to get ample protein for me (90-130g/day) so I consider my protein supplemental not the main course.

Play with it, find what works for you.
