Day 2 Post Op - Why Am I Hungry?!?!



Recommended Posts

So today I have gotten down half a bottle of Water, 3/4 bottle of Vitamin Water Zero, and about a cup of WonTon Soup minus the won tons:) I have read so many posts where people are not hungry at all right after getting banded. So why is my stomach growling?? Tomorrow I am able to start on Protein Shakes and some applesauce if tolerated. Maybe that will help.....

Just wondered if anyone else had tummy growls right after being banded?

My stomach growls all the time. Just be aware that it is not a symptom of hunger. If you eat every time your stomach growls you will put on weight.

Not sure why stomachs growl so much more after banding but they do!

I was very hungry but at the same time I didn't feel good so I didn't want to eat anything.

I just got banded on Friday, and I feel hungry too....but also feel a ton of gas. And I'm nauseous. I cannot tell if its really truly hunger or what.

So I'm on day 3 post op. I was starving the first day of surgery (but they would only give me sugar free pudding that was yuck). The day after surgery I got them to give me carnation instant Breakfast, some yogurt, crystal light, and pudding which was much better, but I was very weak -- they didn't give me any Protein supplements. I left the hospital at 4 PM the day after and went home and had some protein. I haven't been hungry since. It takes forever for me to finish eating anything. I'm guessing that is normal?

I had to start mashies early. Talk to your doc. Also remember that the band may not help at all until you get filled so focus on healthy foods do you can heal!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
