Who's up for a Super-sized Value Meal????

Haha...just kidding of course. I'm ten days out and I am sooo hungry! Is anyone else having this? Everyone I talk to says they are constantly full like they just had a thanksgiving feast. What I wouldn't do for a thanksgiving feast! Haha. I know its stupid but it makes me worried that my pouch isn't there or something awful happened....really, I just want to know if there is anyone out there like me, hungry and ready to eat?

LB, You are definitely not alone. I'm having absolutely NO problems eating 3 oz meals and getting 64 oz of fluids including at least a minimin of 60 gms of protein. Yesterday I had 100 gms of protein. I figured it couldn't hurt. I am hungry a lot too. While other people are struggling to get down a 8 oz protein drink, I can do it in minutes. I keep thinking they "forgot" to make my pouch, but I know that's absurd. Everyone reacts differently I guess. I haven't dumped yet, so I guess everything is okay. I'm still on full liquids for another 5 days. We'll see how differently things go when I get to eat semi-solids like eggs and cottage cheese. I've heard that some people are eating pizza 2 weeks out. My own sister who had this done almost 3 years ago was eating lasagna on day 2. Of course she never made her goal weight, which is why no matter how hungry I am I sticking to this diet like glue.

Hi LB I am also 10 days out.I guess I am just blessed because I have had no hunger.I am only allowed to drink 1 oz of fluid every 1/2 hour.I mix my protien power with 2 0z of water and It takes me an hour to fini**** using baby sips.My doctor told me to measure everything in 1 oz cups and baby sip it to last the whole 1/2 hour so thats what I have been doing.I could do more I am sure but I am sticking to what he says.I think we have to let you pouches heal and treat them like babys.If I feel like chewing do some ice chips...Dawn

Fortunately I haven't been hungry but I dream about FOOD at night! And the commercials on TV are killing me... do they NOT advertise anything but FAST FOOD?? CALGON, TAKE ME AWAY!!!!!!! I'd kill for some cottage cheese.... 9 more days till I can have that... something to live for!!! Vi
