3 days post op and hungry.



Recommended Posts

Are you sure the rumbling is actual hunger and not gas or reflux? I'm over 2 weeks post-op and have not had a single moment where I've been hungry. I think you should discuss this with your surgeon.

i do get hungry, doc told me I was thirsty, and other people say it's reflux, or gas, but it is hunger. I am 18 days post op and it has subsided some, but not totally. I can eat what I feel is alot, compared to what some other people say, and it worries me, but I am still eating about an 1/8 of what I used to.. Just eat what they tell you too, and I do get full pretty quickly, that's the good part, if only the scale would move.

OMG my stomach has been rumbling so much and so loud, although I don't feel hungry. I keep eating the sugar free popcicles because I trying to reach my liquid goal.

I think the rumbling is from the gas or it my stomach's way of telling me it's pissed at me for what I've done to it.

I'm 3 days post op.

NOT HUNGRY AT ALL.

I'm afraid to eat,due to all the pain. I just got out of the hospital. My frist few days haven't been as easy as previously thought. This is a journey we are on. I thought I was ready I now realize I could've researched more. I read on this site about some of the feelings of remorse or uncertainty after surgery. I even read about dehydration, feed pumps. I thought nah....that won't be me. Not saying that it was or will become me. I just under stand the risk more clearly now. Gas,pain,water issues, nausea,swalling....oh my...

Jay sunshine...you feel that way now because of your discomfort level...those gas pain can be maddening... Keep moving ..stretch those arms overhead an burp n fart til you feel better. I was burping all the time in recovery and was far from modest about it. You must get that gas out. Do your deep breathing exercises to get in oxygen and get all those melds out of your lungs. Cough, cough, cough. I got out early because out of the three bariactric patients...I did the best..burp..and excuse me please..I'm trying to recover. :-)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
