Whenever I eat my meals, I get full, but then around an hour and a half to two hours later, I'm hungry and my NUT told me not to eat any Snacks

I'm also stalling and havent dropped any weight in a week.

What am I doing wrong?

How are you supposed to get your protein in at 4 weeks eating just 3 times a day?

No midday Snacks?? You can't possibly be meeting Protein...

She told me not to make snacking a habit, but I get hungry after breakfast and lunch and have been snacking anyway (on healthy things of course like cheeses and nuts) I'm drinking 96+ oz of water a day, so I know its not thirst.

You are allowed nuts at 4 weeks?

I eat Protein 5 -6 times a day. That is the only way I can meet my goals.

When I was 4 weeks I ate every 2-3 hours baked fish or a Protein shake. I wouldn't bother snacking on snacky things. That is creating a bad habit. Later when you are healed you will want to snack on normal snack things. Have multiple small meals so you can meet your goals.

Also are you taking a PPI for acid? You really shouldn't be hungry at all at 4 weeks.

Why no snacks? What is your Protein target? Without snacks, I would never be able to reach my protein target of 100 grams a day. What does your NUT say about planning for a couple of high-protein snacks a day?

If I am hungry after about three hours then I can safely assume I may actually be hungry. If I have eaten recently then it is more likely that I am thirsty (or bored, or stressed).

The good thing about eating three meals and one or two snacks is that I don't really have to wait too long until it is time to eat. I can survive an hour or two being hungry.

Staying hydrated helps, too.

Maybe I'm having head hunger? Every program does things extremely differently I guess because my nutritionist told us in diet class not to drink any protein shakes because they will just go right through your pouch. I do have a PPI, but just haven't been taking it because I haven't had any problems with reflux. Maybe I should start it again.

If you aren't taking a PPI, then what you think is hunger may actually be stomach acid.

If you aren't allowed Protein shakes then how are you getting enough protein?
