This is true. I am never hungry, not even in the morning when I wake up after not eating for several hours. I have an eating schedule that I follow during the day so that I can get in my Protein.

I have seen that many people on this forum say that they are hungry though, so I don't think that everyone who has been sleeved is never hungry, but I don't know why one person is and one person is not.

It was only true for me for about 3 weeks. At almost 4 months post op, I am hungry all the time :-(

I have had maybe 3 times in 7 weeks post op that I thought I was hungry. Before surgery I usually had trouble telling if I was truley hungry or if it was a digestion issue. Just like pre op I usually feel weak and shakey rather than stomach hunger.

I can honestly say any hunger I have is "head hunger".

Head hunger and psycho cravings start to subside. I am not hungry very often.

I'm 11 days post sleeve and haven't been hungry once! I'm hoping this never goes away!! Now, I can't say the pizza and fast food commercials don't still grab me a little bit... But, nothing like before!

I am 2 + years out... and after finding that I don't eat and began to look sick I realized I have to eat MORE!! So yes I am never really hungry and if I am.. ONE BITE of anything works! and it goes away. I have had to "make meals" to eat so I don't keep losing. So I think for some people it goes away!

Hunger returned for me around 3 weeks - but only if I go beyond 4 hours of not eating. I don't wake hungry in the morning though.

I am 4 months out...I do not get hungry. I know it won't last forever, but I hope to lose as much as I can while it lasts. Everybody is different. I've read posts from people right out of surgery who say they are hungry, so there is no guarantee.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
