How many of you have lost the sensation of hunger after having the lap band for a few years?

Still hungry after 19 months!

I did lose hunger when in the green zone. I enjoyed food when I ate it but didn't feel hungry and often forgot to eat.

Food became very much like having a nice massage. Nice at the time, but if it didn't happen, I didn't really think about it at all.

I have not experienced real hunger in over 2 years now....

Most days I forget to eat anything between my breakfast smoothie and dinner....

I have gone full 24 hour days and forget to eat anything, especially if I'm pre occupied with something like hiking or out on the boat fishing....and it des not bother me

I wish I had! I'm nearing my three year anniversary and sadly, I still do get hungry.

To be honest, now that I think about it, not like I used to though.

Banded nearly 10 months now and I still get really hungry. Don't think it was as bad as before though.

Hopefully a few more fills and ill get there!

My stomach is growling as we speak! But it only gets like this first thing in the morning since its been 12 hours since I ate and I've been up 2 hours already. It knows its time for food! But after breakfast, I eat because I'm supposed to. I sometimes flat out forget to.
