Starving in the afternoon!

[momof5 0]

Does anyone have any suggestions for combating afternoon hunger?

I've had three fills, up to 5ccs in a 10cc band. Don't think I'm at that sweet spot yet, but the doctor wouldn't fill it anymore this past time because I refluxed a little with the barium.

I have no problem in the morning. Usually eat a Protein Bar. Then for lunch concentrate on more Protein - about a cup, but then from about 1pm to 4pm I can't seem to get full...it is aweful! Then at dinner, I eat a little and go the rest of the night with no issues.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Eat.

I eat 5-7 times a day so between those hours you mentioned I've eaten once or twice.

You are doing great!

I have the same problem with afternoon hunger. What I have started doing, like Vegas said, is eat.

I tend to have trouble squeezing all my Fluid in during the day because I work in a medical lab and we are not allowed to have any food or beverages around. So when I pack my lunch I put in a bottle of Water with those crystal light single servings for Water bottles. I drink that on the way home ( which takes about 30min) and then after I get home I grab a quick healty snack. Then I have dinner between 6:00pm. and 7:00p.m. That's how I stop myself from really screwing my diet for the day.
