So... I am 12 days post op, surgery went very well mild discomfort but nothing extreme. The only problem I am having is that I AM HUNGRY?!?! I have read all about head hunger and have tried talking myself out of it, talking to my NUT and to my therapist but I promise you guys I am really actually just hungry? Is this weird?

Of course I find once I eat several bits of something I'm good but then I'm hungry again a couple hours later? I was on the full liquid diet for 30 days pre-op and am still on it until Thursday. I'm hoping when I start puréed foods Thursday maybe hunger will cease fire? Please let me know your thoughts as I just can't wrap my head around it. Thank you in advance! Oh and pre-op weight 284, today I weight 255.

Are you taking your PPI in the morning? This has helped me tremendously ....

First off great weight loss! When you get to more protein dense food in purée and soft food the fullness will stay with you longer liquid type things will clear your stomach much faster.

I am 6 weeks post op and still feel hungry exactly like you.

I had my surgery 5/29 and I'm not getting hungry but what i do get are cravings as long as i can control them I'm good. Just set your mind on the prize!
