Does your appetite change throughout the day?



Recommended Posts

When I had the lapband, I had trouble eating early in the morning because my band was still tight. I've only had the sleeve a few weeks but have noticed the same pattern. Mornings are tough to get my Protein Drink down, just not hungry but by dinnertime, my appetite is definitely increased

@ Mine doesn't change throughout the day but it changes from day to day. Sometimes I eat ok and other days I'd rather just drink my shakes and eat Quest bars. I don't Have any hunger though so it's easy for me to just not eat.

Oh BUT if I drink a bunch of Water 90+ oz I feel like I can eat more...weird I know. Before surgery people would always say "oh just drink a lot of water it will keep you from being hungry" bull! Total opposite!

I have days like that too - some days I'm just not hungry - like yesterday - I had to force myself to have a yogurt, then Cereal - I'm diabetic and was having an off day.. so that's all I felt like. Being diabetic, just eating the Protein doesn't always work for me.

It seems to me also that if I drink a lot of water, by mealtime I can eat more. That reminds me of the band too- if I didn't drink enough the band tightened up and I would have trouble eating.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
