I had my RNY April 9th. I have been having 1/2 c 3 times a day. And about 1 to 2 cups of protein shake. How am I doing? I get hungry in the evenings. Like now I'm hungry. Is this normal?

GOD BLESS YOU

You're doing fine but if you feel hungry in the evenings, I would either eat something or have a protein shake in the evenings. I was advised to eat four to six times a day (I counted a protein shake as a "meal").

I had my surgery 4/10 and I am in the exact same boat as you! I don't know if it's normal so I thought something was wrong with me. I'm going to try drinking a protein shake in the evening.

Surgery Feb 24 and I still am working at getting in the required protein. I'm not up to the full amount of shake and water but I keep sipping away. Tonight we are having Nik's Mexican Lasagna and it sure smells good baking.
