so its official I'm officially out of the woods.. I'm 9 weeks out and saw my doctor.. and got a clean bill of health ... its been a roller coaster but I'm "normal" now.. had many obstacles and got thru them all.. dehydration, gastrointestinitis, naropathy, abdominal pain, gastritis, hypoglasimia and pain pain pain.. had many tests done and many medications. last test was egd and my G I doctor states that I'm now able to eat anything i want and assured me my stomach should not stretch out.. as far as eating I've done ok along the way despite the pain attacks i stuck to my diet phases but within the last week.. i have experienced hunger attacks literally get extremely hungry and want to shove everything in my mouth. its scary.. although i can't overstuff my stomach or i get severe pain i still attempt to eat more then i should because i feel so hungry i hope this is a phase that will go away. is this physical mental did the gi doctors words trigger bad behavior has anyone experienced this? was it a phase? did it go away? please share. trying really hard to control my eating.. by the way I'm stalling between 141 - 143 pounds..... regardless of what i have gone through i don't regret my wls because i am down 4 pant sizes.. : -)

I find myself getting hungry too...but I still cannot eat/drink much liquid shakes...I think some of it for me is still that gas...when that's rumbling, I feel hungry...because when the pain of the gas stops...so does the mad hungry feeling. but then again, I have only reached 375 calories today...so maybe there is hunger...but I took in as much as I could.
