HEY ALL!!! It's BigTex checking in! Just hit my 200 pounds lost goal 1 month short of being A year post OP. I'm noticing that Im getting hungry FAST. And I'm not talking about after eating light meals. I'm talking protein dense meals. Tilapia, baked chicken, curried turkey(it's a gem try it!) I'll get hungry again in about an hour and 30 minutes. Anyone else have this issue? What did y'all do to satisfy the beast? It almost feels like I'm constantly eating/drinking something with high protein. Is this normal? Did a old witch put a curse over me? Do I need to sacrifice a goat? HELP![emoji23]

big do you still track your food? if so what is you fat percentage? Fat will provide that full feeling longer and will not spike your sugar/insulin response to the degree of the other macro's

also you can "train" your ghrelin response so over time if you eat more often you get hungry more often it is a viscous cycle but will pass if given time.

so if you fat percent in you food is low try to bump up the fat to help you go longer between meals.

watch those sugars and simple carbs they will start you on that cycle of hungry every hour as those highly refined foods hit your system hard but wear off real quick and just leave you starving after.
