What all were you consuming 3 days after surgery? Today my hunger hit me like a force! Still on liquids though.

I survived on beef broth, sugar free popsicles, Isopure and Water. Good luck!

Liquids and I'm overwhelmed with it, but I know I need to stay hydrated, the broth smell had me nausea, just the smell of it so I'm pretty much drinking juices, Water, sugar free Popsicles and Jello, good luck

How long did you all measure what you had as you had it? I am having broth and just having a couple spoonfuls every few minutes.

I was (still am - PO day 5) mostly Water and maybe about 1 oz of sugar-free Jell-O per day. I tried chicken broth but it was very unappealing. I sucked the salt off of a few pretzels - my body was craving electrolytes.

I cried on day 3 from hunger. Day 4 was Christmas, the family made cinnamon rolls for Breakfast and I cried. SO FREAKING HUNGRY. I was mad and weak from having no calories in 10+ days, ya know? I am still angry because why the EFF am I hungry????? That was the allure of this procedure: to not be so GD hungry!

Christmas dinner was easier than breakfast, but still difficult.

For me, the feeling of "full" is totally different than before the WLS. It's more of a slight pain or that feeling you get just before you're about to burp. I'd recommend trying to discover what your new feeling of fullness is.

I've not vomited at all, so I think I've done well with not over-consuming.

Tonight, I had just the liquid from vegetable Soup. I'd have a spoonful, put it down, and wait at least one minute to try for another. I'd say I had maybe 10 spoonfuls before feeling full.

As for measuring water, I bought a bottle with the oz/mL on the side - just fill in the AM and try to hork down as much as I can without causing myself discomfort. At the end of the day, I know what I've been able to drink.

We can do it, hayleyf3706! I am so sorry that you're hungry. I am extremely hungry, too. It must mean that we're special, right?? LOL

I'm almost 3 weeks post opp. My first week it was hard. I was barely able to drink Water but I was able to eat a sugar free ice pop! You're lucky that you can have Jello. I know the hunger part is hard but if I could get half way through the liquid part anyone can good luck!

Soft Solids are kinda funny. On my liquids, I had no issues. Regularly downed 20z of liquids (as water or Protein shakes) within 40 mins. food was a completely different matter.

I was so eager that I munched on the chicken a bit too fast. It wasn't a nice experience. By the third meal, I could properly assess 'fullness'.

I'm 8 days post op and starving! I drink almost 2 Protein shakes a day and about 1-2 Jello cups. If I'm desperate for salt I'll have a sip or two of some soup but I'm so not happy about feeling hungry!

Hey Middus, good to know. I'll definitely be taking baby steps as I "level up", but your post reminded me not to get too cocky just because I'm doing OK with fluids.

Vee16. UGH! I keep waiting for that magic moment when the hunger goes away. Dang why could we be like so many other who don't have hunger PO??

This is my fear! I have surgery Dec 30th. When are we supposed to be NOT hungry anymore??

@@Christina.Rose I think once I start eating real food I'll realize how not hungry I actually am! And I think a LOT of it for most of us will be head hunger
