I am 4 days post-op and have been having a lot of hunger pangs. I thought hunger pangs would no longer be an issue after the sleeve? Has anybody else experienced this?

Lots of people on here will say its only gas but I have had hunger pains from the beginning. I'm a year out and I've lost 165 pounds. When I haven't ate for a few hours yes my stomach growls but after a few bites I'm full. So don't let it worry you because it hasn't affected my weight loss at all.

Wow!! Congratulations on your weightloss!!! Thanks for the response. Sometimes it just helps to know someone else out there feels what I feel.

I'm 6 weeks out and my stomach growls after I eat a few bites I'm good to go. I eat more frequent now than I did post op.

And here's a thiought. At least in my case I am not sure I ever knew what hunger was (before). I just ate all the time. What works for me is to eat on a schedule and drink lots of water...

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
