hungry Feeling hungry at night????

[Sassy Sleeve 34]

I am two weeks post op. My plan called for a solid week of Clear Liquids, and now I have been on full liquids (protein drinks, malt-o-meal, greek yogurt without fruit chunks, Soups made with milk, etc.)

During the day, I follow a schedule and consume between 3-4 ounces of non-protein heavy options. I also get in my Protein options. I am consuming right around the recommended amount of 65 grams.

I am drinking clear non-caloric liquids all day (except for 30 minutes before and after the “meal”).

During the day, I do get a little hungry, but I am easily satisfied by following the prescribed plan.

At night, I feel hungry.

I am not sure what to make of this… I want to believe it is head hunger… but I am worried that it is not.

I was moved to full liquids last Friday – and the weight loss has been very slow since then.

I am generally getting in about 600 calories a day.

I have always skewed my food so that I had more in the evenings. I do this by not eating until about 10am and putting a little extra time between my meals in the early afternoon. I have always wanted to eat more in the evenings, so this trick has served me well during my post-op journey.

And, clearly it has worked. :-) Wow!

That is interesting. Working on not eating in the evening was one of my pre-op nutrition goals, so I have been feeling like I just should not do that.

Thank you for the feedback!
