I am 23 days post op. I felt exactly what you are feeling and it is absolutely normal. Let’s remember that a PORTION of the stomach was removed,not the entire thing. So feeling hunger is normal. When taking my antacid medicine twice a day everyday in a timely manner, I felt the “ hunger” pains diminish. Also making sure I get my fluids and Protein Shakes in is key. Be strong and remember it is mind over matter. #wecandoit.

I'm completely opposite. My surgery was 12-28-18 and I can barely get 4 of those 2oz liquids in right now (still liquids till the 11th). I've just gotten to the place I can drink 40oz of Water a day. I do get hungry but once I do my little shot glass, IM STUFFED and feel like I'm gonna explode. I've actually cooked for my hubby a couple times which I never thought I would be doing. We KNOW this is ONLY a small tool that we are to use. Psychological states 75% is MENTAL so we have to put all those bad eating/thinking habits of food away. I for one never want to be in this place again. Dont get me wrong I LOVE food but not more than I love my life and I've become way too unhealthy to keep living like this. Please take this as encouragement because that is what I'm trying to do here. We cant just expect a slice of our tummy to change our craving for food. That part is in our head. We will fight that demon the rest of our lives. I'm praying I never give it a change to rule over my life again. As soon as I'm healed, its workouts and Nutrition to keep me centered and on course. Best wishes to you all on your new beginnings. Dont allow your old habits to defeat you especially so early in the game.
