Hunger-eat or ignore?

I hate to say this, but I never was on a clear liquid date past the first 24 hrs after surgery. I was on yogurt, protein shakes, etc by day 2. I can tell you that hunger did decrease quite a bit when I moved to full food at 4 weeks. Dense protein does fill up more and last longer. 

Did your Dr ok you going to yogurt that soon or did you just choose to do that?  I've almost s few times thought about eating some yogurt by I'm scared to damage sleeve

They considered yogurt and pudding as part of full liquids and that was the first 2 weeks for me. So, yes, doc approved. 

You are very lucky,  I am to be on a clear liquid diet for three weeks before I start my full liquid diet

My nutritionist used to work in the mayo clinic and before the group now-she said neither one had more than a day of clears. It would be nice if one standard was used by everyone. With 3 weeks of clears, how do you get protein?

I have had no protein except what I get from chicken broth since a week ago yesterday.  Today I'm allowed to start adding in my protein shake again.  But it is not sitting well in my system at all. 

Have you visited the nutritionist recently? What is your program guidelines for this point?  If your program guidelines are 600 calories then a call to the nutritionist is in order. Eating a slice of deli turkey sounds like a great idea and sure beats a donut. The nutritionist might tell you to do the same thing but they may also have another suggestion.

I haven't seen her. My program calls for just eating 60-80g protein, no more than 1 cup of food at a time, and eating just three times a day for 600-800 cal. I follow more what I see on here with a couple of high protein, small, healthy snacks. I think I am afraid to move closer to 800 cal since I am in an 8 day stall and so early still. 

Well, what you've done so far isn't working so time for something different. When you're hungry outside your normal meals eat a slice or even half a slice of deli turkey or ham or whatever it is you find appealing. If a half a slice isn't helping then eat a whole slice. I wouldn't be surprised to see you drop a bunch of weight once you start increasing your calories. Or you could try drinking a few ounces of a protein shake.

Thanks! I will try those tips! My exercise has increased pretty rapidly in the past 10 days, so I likely need some more fuel.
