I am 3 and a half weeks out and am so hungry all the time even after I eat. I am still eating mushy foods. I am very worried about this. Any suggestions?

I told my sister I am eating too much. She said what are you eating? I told her (just normal stuff for the mushy foods) following the NUTs instructions. and she said I sound like some anorexic girl. She said that is nothing.

A lot of people on here have said that hunger after eating is likely due to acid. Are you taking anything for reflux or any antacid?

Are you getting all of your Protein? Are you getting all of your Water? Are you getting your Vitamins in? As long as I'm doing those 3 things, I'm never hungry.

Also, are you sure it's not head hunger?

no have not thought of that

In the beginning especially acid can be a problem. You can check with your dr, but a lot of then prescribe these meds immediately post op.

I fully agree w/Kelly. My surgeon prescribed prilosec and another for my gallbladder. I was taking both 2x a day morning and night. Dr said I can stop the prilosec and see how I do with acid reflux. I do fine, ( no acid) but noticed hunger feelings that I did not have before?! So I just decided yesterday to finish off w/prilosec perscription. BTW Im 7wks post-Op.
