Did anyone feel hungry after surgery?

I don’t know if it’s head hunger, but I feel like I was literally hunger after surgery. Still to this day. I’m 3 days out. Is it because I’m on liquids and everyone is eating food around me?

Also- my surgeon says the hunger feeling may be just irritation to the lining of my stomach from surgery.

Please tell me other people felt hungry?? :( I know it’s only 3 days out but what if my stomach is too big or this isn’t going to work for me :(

Me too. 3 weeks out. The dietitian told me it's in my head but I'm 57 and I'm pretty sure i know what hunger pangs are by now, surgery or no surgery. I've been on pureed diet for 1 week. I just don't feel satisfied. At all!

I'm not saying you're not physically hungry, but I thought I knew the difference between physical hunger and head hunger as well. It turns out for me, they feel the same.
