Hi, nice to hear from someone who had the surgery recently. I am doing so much better. I drink my protein shake in the morning and sip on Isopure protein water during the day alternating sips with water and have soup/bone broth for meals. This has helped ward off headaches and of course, walking at least every 30 minutes.
How are you doing?
Hi, thank you for replying. I am certainly doing my best to increase activity.
Hello. My weight loss surgery team stressed walking as much as possible to make the gas and bloating go away. It definitely helps.

Thank You! I am very motivated and working hard everyday to get to goal!
That is awesome! so happy for you. I'm one pound away from that but I get what you mean about how much easier it is compared to trying to lose weight without the extra help. I wish you all the best in the coming months and sending you positive vibes on your continued journey to a healthier you.
Thank you so much! I wish you the same and may hitting Onderland be an awesome experience for you!
I'm not sure if nexium is the same but our little stomach still create acid sometimes the acid in your stomach feels like hunger and the acid causes heartburn I would check the active ingredient in both or ask your doctor . It really helped me
best to you

I'm 2.5 months out. Dr. Alvarez was my surgeon and he does a YouTube video series called Askdra. He addresses all sorts of topics including inflammation, stalls, head hunger, etc.
Most people on here recommend logging food. I do so using an app called Baritastic. There are a lot of them. If your physical activity increases over time your hunger may too as you need more energy for certain activities. Recently I started walking a few miles per day. I drink plenty of fluids which curbs my appetite but I am slightly hungrier than before. Carbs/sugar tends to be my weakness. I use sweetener mostly but there are carbs in a lot of foods. If you minimalize carbs your weight should be fine
I will be 2 years out in 8 more days. Acid and thirst can mimic hunger for me still. If I have eaten within an hour or so and feel that feeling I will take and antacid and/or drink some water before going to food.
Shakes do nothing for my hunger. I have to have food. Usually an egg and bacon and sometimes grits for breakfast.
