I am a bottomless pit today!



Recommended Posts

I am just a little over 5 weeks out from VSG today, I have been so hungry!! I feel like I could eat all day. I am doing ok-I am at 700 calories and have hit 68 grams of Protein so far. I haven't gone over 600 calories since surgery. I have also been weepy and hormonal today-FYI had a partial hysterectomy 4 years ago-it could be PMS but I have no way of tracking it. I'm just a whiny butt today!!

Thanks for listening to me whine. Just needed to get that out!!

I HATE those days! Some days I barely feel like eating, and others I could eat all day long and have to restrain myself, lol. Although I don't have periods anymore, I really think it hormones for me, too.

Hang in there! We all need a good whine once in a while, lol.

When I get that way I have a piece of dark chocolate and a Dark chocolate Royal Atkins shake. It works! Or I just go to bed, that works too.

I have noticed that I am more hungry on some days than others as well. But I haven't been starving. TG! lol

I eat between 650-750 calories a day. Usually average around 700.

Hang in there! hopefully its hormonal and will end very soon!! :)

You nailed it! I too have days of super hunger and days I am not interested in eating! The days I am really hungry are frustrating because I end up having something I should not! Work in progress here!

The advice I got from the NUT was if I feel hungry then eat some Protein. She said not to worry so much about calories but get in the proper Protein and then if I was still hungry to either have more protein or make a salad.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
