  • "Starving" this soon out of surgery is unlikely. Most of what people feel is head hunger or acid. Did your surgeon give you a PPI to take? Best way to test to see if it's true hunger is to drink so

No. It is not a good idea to advance your diet without talking to your surgeon.

Since you were not given a post-op food plan, I would highly recommend you give them a call and get some clarification. Making it up on your own is not a very good idea.

It might not actually be hunger you are feeling because they have removed the biggest part of your stomach the part that produces the hunger inducing hormone ghrelin.

Wind can cause a hollow hunger like feeling in your abdomen. It could be you are thirsty. It could even be head hunger missing food.

Drink as much Fluid as you can preferably those containing my milk this will help. Have sugar in tea that will help too.

Your surgeon and support team should have given you a guide on what diet to follow if they haven't ask them .

You should stay on fluids meaning liquids Protein shakes and liquids Soups. For a week post op then gradually start to introduce puréed foods. Protein first, aim 65g a day. Keeps you healthy, keeps you full, helps boost weight loss.

Aim to 1.7quarts 2 litres of fluid daily

Take b12 and a good liquid multi Vitamin mineral supplement.

Best wishes xox
