Are you hungry?

So this may be a stupid question but I guess I was under the impression that with the Sleeve and with the grelin gone, my appetite would at least be lessened. I have to tell you that whatever it is that is left of my stomach is constantly growling no matter how much Water and Jello I stick into it. I am just under a week post op. Is this my own hang up that when I smell or see food it is triggering my brain as opposed to my stomach or am I really that hungry? Anyone else?

I'm always hungry also. Not sure if its because I'm cooped up in the house all day because of all the snowstorms we keep getting. Hoping it gets better when I go back to work
