Starting To Get Hunger Attacks.... Help....



Recommended Posts

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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
