Please tell me I won't be hungry anymore!



Recommended Posts

I'm almost three months out and I feel very little physical hunger so far. I do get the head hunger to 'graze' at times, but if I "think" about my hunger, I really don't have much in the physical sense, unless I go 5-6 hours without eating anything I start to feel a little low on energy. I'm eating 4-5 meals of no more than 4oz of almost pure Protein. I take in at least 64 oz of liquids and I checked my caloric intake a few days back and I'm just under 1,000 calories. On days I exercise, I burn between 500-700 calories.

I recently went on a vacation and eating felt more like a nuisance, which I thought was rather funny. I actually bought Snacks like cottage cheese and Protein Bars. I lost weight on vacation! Who knew that could happen?

Hi

9 months out, I feel hunger occasionally but it is a polite sensation which,

if it is not convenient, I can ignore. An hour later, I will get a slightly stronger sensation.

Even though I used to eat low GI foods to avoid energy swings, I used to be ravenous , headachy, and tense about 2-3 hours after eating and was desperate to get to food - anything.

From talking to (thin) friends, I understand that the polite "empty" which I now feel is more

like the "normal" sensations that they have always experienced.

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
