Lately I've been starving for food but when I finally eat it, it's not as enjoyable as I thought it would be. I can only get in a few bites and then my pouch can't take anymore but I'm still feeling hungry....such a weird feeling and head hunger is no joke. When they say you need to be mentally prepared for this lifestyle change, You have to be mentally prepared!!! Despite all of that, I still do not regret my decision and I want everyone to stay encouraged whether you are post op, pre op or considering wls.

Thanks for the info. My date is April 24th and I'm trying to make sure I want to do this.

Go for it! Everyone has their own experiences. You may not go though the same thing post op. I'm still proud of my decision of having the gastric sleeve. I'm losing so much weight that I've been having a hard time getting rid of on my own and its a great feeling. So whatever you decide to do, I wish you the best on your weight loss journey!

From what I can tell you are just sleeved this month. You definitely won't be able to eat much. I am 8 months out and love food. I eat small portions. But it still is not as enjoyable as before sleeve. But that's a good thing. It will get better for you. I regretted the surgery for probably the first three months. After that I am 200% on board

Are you taking a PPI like Protonix? When I was a few weeks out from surgery I had this feeling that seemed like hunger, but turns out it was acid in my new tummy. Once I started taking the Protonix, that "hungry" feeling disappeared. You may want to chat with your medical team.
