Suddenly I am hungry WTH!
I am 6 wks post-op hernia repair and plastics. I have only tolerated a few bites here and there with no appetite. I have litterally lived on double scoop protein shakes (200 gram average per day).
This afternoon right out of the blue I started eating and here it is 11 pm and still eating. I feel like my stomach has a hole in it and I cannot fill it. I am starving. What the heck did I do to start this?
Gee I hope this leaves soon. Now I will be up crapping all hours of the night and all morning. I am craving oats, bread, saltines stuff I don't eat. I have ate so much this evening I am sick now.
Has this happened to anyone else and how long did it last?

Carla,
Have you been on a lot of antibiotics following surgery? t
They always rob my appetite - have to force myself to eat, but once I finish the course, watch out. Appetite returns with a vengeance! It levels off eventually.
I also just have days out of the blue when I'm just starving for all the bad stuff. I'll get to feeling yuck after such a binge so it seems to be self limiting.
Regards,

Actually they gave me IV antibiotics in hospital and then sent me home with a 14-day regiemine. I stricktly did the probiotics and Activa during that time and for 20-days post antibiotic so that went well.
I have been craving crunchy salty stuff mostly saltine cracker with cheese, potatoes and a slice of real toast. Other than that I eat high protien, high fat and low carb always, mostly protein shakes.
I guess I am just having a few days of carb crave. This is day 3 and I already don't want anything to eat again. I have a bad tooth, (of course while our insurance is in change, new ins starts Nov 1), so I take a vicodin every once in a while to deal with that and I have to do 4 saltines crackers with slice of cheese so it doesn't tear my stomach up.
I hope I can stay in control and get my last 30--40 pounds off to hit goal. I am stuck at 220. I want to hit onederland so bad. I am going to be 21 months post DS the 23 of this month of Sept.

You are doing everything right Carla. You will get there. Who knows why we have these mysterious stalls? But we do and it seems everyone is different. I actually started losing again (tiny bit by teensy bit) just recently and I am over two years out now. I believe in you - you're gonna make it!

Regards,
I would say for the past 6-7 months I have lost at a snales pace but I have lost so I am not complaining. I am just afraid of it stopping.
My new issue just started this week is I am back to the runs from the whey protein shakes. Geez my DS is moody lol. I am not eating very much again so I have to work on a balance now.
Thank you for sharing that you are still losing at over 2 years out, that is so encouraging for me.

I find when I eat carbs that I can't kick the craving for at least the rest of the day.
