Hello All....I was sleeved on may 18th (so 5 weeks out). I am now on soft foods and feeling hungry ALL THE TIME.

I can only have 3-4 oz of food and eat mainly Protein...Wait until an hour for Water (after)...But be sure, an hour after eating my 4 oz of cottage cheese, I'm Hungry!?!?!?!

It seems I should not eat too often so I wait until my snack time to have more food.

I was just wondering if I am the only one like this? In my sleeve fairytale, I was never going to be hungry ever again...???

Is it just me? I need tips, help!

Are you getting all your fluids in for the day? Dehydration can cause hunger feelings. Also are you taking any antacids? Too much acid in the stomach can cause you to "feel" hungry. I am 5-1/2 weeks out and I never get hungry. I have to watch the clock and make myself eat.

Wow...I wish I was you!!!!

Yes, I do check my fluids and make sure I get at least 2 litres of fluids per day (8 cups)...As for the antacids, I take Prevacid 30mg each day...

Anyone else???

I am 4 weeks out and I am sure I get hungry, not always but usually an hour or so after I eat. I drink Water 30-45 minutes after eating. I am not sure if that's normal for some or not. I don't think it's emotional or habitual either because it's not consistent or on certain days or times. IDK

Yes, it's the same for me...I'm sure it's hunger and not stomach pain because when I drink Water when I'm hunger, I can feel it go down my oesophagus and stomach...So it's empty. Maybe I should eat more solid food.< /p>

      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...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
