Hunger could be from stomach acid. Acid reflux is common with VSG. Talk to your doctor about this.

I have been good about the vitamins but still get tired. I do have depression and have for years.

I am leaning towards dehydration but you are right, I should call my doctor as the nausea continues.

I am not drinking 64 oz or more a day. So hard for me to do. I didn't think about dehydration or even an ulcer.

I mixed protein powder into sugarfree instant pudding. I also bought an ice cream maker and made protein shakes into soft serve ice cream. I ate a lot of mug muffin made with 1/3 cup flaxseed, sweetener, a teaspoon of baking powder, a drop of vanilla extract, and one egg. Mix all together in a coffee mug and microwave for about one minute.

I mix greek yogurt with sugar free cool whip. About 1/2 and 1/2. Makes it taste a lot better to me.
