Hello all! I've been reading a lot of post ops ... They keep saying how their hungry still.. I'm so scared this is going to happen to me.. My doc says that he uses a 38-39 bougie and I do t feel like that is small enough for me.. I just eat 2 thin burgers and a few slices of steak and am still hungry.. Pls tell me this gets better!! Thank you in advance!!

Since i had my surgery i dont think about food. Never hungry. I have to look at the clock to eat.

Hi

9 months out, I feel hunger occasionally but it is a polite sensation which,

if it is not convenient, I can ignore. An hour later, I will get a slightly stronger sensation.

Even though I used to eat low GI foods to avoid energy swings, I used to be ravenous , headachy, and tense about 2-3 hours after eating and was desperate to get to food - anything.

From talking to (thin) friends, I understand that the polite "empty" which I now feel is more

like the "normal" sensations that they have always experienced.
