Hungry?

[Love27 29]

Had my gastric sleeve surgery last week on Thursday with no complications thankfully. Since day one I have been able to drink Water just fine, take pills also...well it’s been 6 days and have tried to get as close as 64 oz of water a day as I could and I’ve been drinking some broth, and some sipping on Protein Shakes per my doctor she said main focus is water not Protein but I am hungry! Is this normal? Yesterday I thought it was a mental thing but today I actually feel my empty stomach growling? Any one have any advise?

Yes Water goes thru you fast - here is a trick -

Make a broth or base, I suggest you use Bacon Base or chicken base - Sip it every hour about 5 oz and you will stop the hunger -

The base or broth has great amount of minerals also and will make you feel better - you are close to being able to add some soft things to the bases so blend and enjoy - Also add a small amount of Protein Powder

DO NOT USE STORE BOUGHT BROTH OR BASE IF YOU CAN AVOID IT, THEY ARE LOADED WITH SALT AND CHEAP ONES HAVE CHEMICALS -

It's okay to be a little hungry. Just stick with small portion sizes. Some of it could be head hunger.
