Yes you are hungry but it's because you still have some ghrelin hormones left over. The hunger will go away... btw.....stomach acid does mimick hunger so a lot of people are on PPI's (nexium, omeprazole, prilosec, etc) This helps with the hunger pains... :) It does go away too....

Up to 4 to 6 weeks............You might also be a little hungry because your on liquids or soft foods like yogurt, cottage cheese, sf pudding, sf jello or protein shakes..... You are doing really good too btw... :)

I have also seen articles stating that dehydration can mimic hunger. Try drinking fluids and taking an antiacid of some sort. I think that should help until you start eating food that stays with you longer.

Thanks! I'm 2 weeks post op and since then (and of course pre op diet) I've lost 28 lbs already! The last 5 days my scale really hasn't moved so I'm getting kind of bummed about that.
