I've been told by many people that post-op you are no longer hungry and have to remind yourself to eat. This is not the case for me at all, every 2 hours or so after eating i'm starving! Some people say it's head hunger but it sure doesn't feel mental since my stomach is growling like a beast inside me. I eat about 80g of.protein daily so that's not the issue. It scares me how often i feel the need to eat post op

To be honest with you. I'm never hungry. I can sleep 24hr and not eat. I do make my self eat like every 3 hours.

I had my surgery July 3rd. The 1st week I wasn't hungry at all. The 2nd week I started getting hungry. That scared me. I want my surgery to be sucessful. The weight loss has been very slow for me. Only 10 lbs so far. I am up to about 60 grams of Protein so far and about 50-60 oz of fluids. I want to try to increase to 80 grams of protein and get in more fluids. I'm hoping this will start me losing weight faster. I did start walking last week 30 minutes a day and increased to 40 minutes yesterday. My mom had her surgery 9 years ago and said she was never hungry and didn't eat more than she had to bc she wanted to lose the weight.

I wish I wasn't hungry mami...you have find great with your weigh loss so far.

I like the slow past I don't want to lose weight fast & then be depress over saggy body. I'm working out also so the weight lost might decrease or be steady but I'm fine with that.

Well you look great!! Hopefully my slow weightless will result in no or very minimal extra skin.
