Am I Feeling Hunger Pains?
It's probably just mental hunger. You've been conditioned to eat eat eat for so long, and now your subconscious is like "HEY WHERES THE food ITS TIME TO EAT!" Did your Doc give you anything to take daily like Prilosec or another PPI? It could be acid in your stomach causing you to "feel hungry" even though youre not. But if I had to guess I'd say it was the mental thing. I still struggle at times 5 months out with the mental hunger. Just make sure you're getting as much fluids in as you can and everything will be just fine!

Scary
This risk of complications are very small. And hopefully you will have an experience similar to mine. I had absolutely zero pain after surgery. I was up and walking around a few hours afterwards and could have went home that night if they would have let me. Try not to worry too much! These people who will be taking care of you are pros and will do everything they can to make your experience as smooth and pain free as possible!

Help
You should be fine just this once. Don't make a habit out of it though. Pulpy juices and fruit isn't good for us early on. especially this early. Try not to worry too much. If you have any major pains or anything maybe call your surgeon's number and they'll contact them and let them know what's going on and he/she will get back to you. Otherwise try not to fret.

Surgery Center In The United States Or Hospital?
If I had the option, I would stay in the hospital for surgery and stay at least overnight if not longer. This is a major surgery. I think it would be best to be at a hospital setting where if god forbid anything went wrong or you had some sort of bad reaction, there would be people on hand immediately to deal with the situation.
