Hunger pain

I am just a little over a month out and just today felt my first hunger pain. I was upset cause I hadn't felt one since before surgery. Will this mean I will be hungry all the time now or want to eat more? I hope not....

Some people never like we the hunger sensation altogether. There are ways to reduce it. Sometimes stomach acid mimics hunger so make sure its not that first (take your PPI) , next make sure its not thirst (often feels like hunger) last make sure you are not eating things that prompt a hunger sensation, high sugar, high carb and even high vitamin b 12 ( found out from another member) Do a bit of research, check your routine and Speak with your team about ways to keep real hunger at bay.

Thank u:) I have had no sugar at all since before surgery and my carbs are very low as well. I go next week for routine bloodwork. Maybe my b12 count is high.

Also I had was very busy yesterday and didn't drink I should had. Maybe that was it?

Maybe but don't change anything until your team advises you to

take the prescribed PPI ( if you were given one), push hydration to the Max (remember it doesn't ave to be just water ,just cal free sugar free and on your plan) and its really helpful to stick to a schedule to train your body and mind
