I'm 12 weeks post op and I've only lost 35lbs, I'm also always hungry. Is this normal??? Help!!!

Are you getting your proteins in first in every meal? if you do the proteins 1st you stay fuller longer.

I would say there is a really good chance this is head hunger. At this point in your journey you should not really have a physical feeling of hunger all the time. I would also suggest you log you food. I will give a better idea of what you are putting in your body. Have you talked to your doc yet?

No I hadn't talk to my doctor yet. But I do plan to call him. I do think its mental hunger, because I'm not physically hungry at all. Just my mind saying eat!

It's most likely head hunger. All day I think about what to eat next and I have to stop myself and find something else to do. And I also ask myself "are you really hungry or just bored and think you're hungry" and this usually helps.
