Hungry post op?

Hello

I am 6 days away from surgery...and freaking out a little

My BMI is 31 so I keep asking ...do I really need to do this?

I have been reading how hungry people are post op and was wondering who had this experience?

I have been on a liquid (optifast) diet for a week now and finding I am not very hungry at all except at night which im pretty sure is head hunger as I miss eating dinner with my family

Does doing this diet pre op help with hunger post op? I thought you were suppose to not be hungry after the op?

My biggest fear is that I will have the surgery and feel like I am on a permenant diet!!!!!

I have been hungry since surgery 2 1/2 years ago. I eat less with the sleeve and follow Dr. Vuong's plan and have lost 79 lbs. but hunger has always been an issue for me

I had some frustrating head hunger about a week after surgery. Lasted a few days. Never since. I am at 5 months and do not experience hunger.
