Gsv yesterday..hungry today!

So I had my gastric sleeve done yesterday morning all went well I feel well I'm going home in about a half an hour but I got to tell you I'm hungry. Is this normal? I was kind of afraid of this. Although I have to remember that when I do start eating in a month or so I don't know how long it takes it will be very little and I won't be able to eat as much. Anybody else hungry after their operation?

Yes, but not till the 4th day and I was starving. I drank broth and it helped tremendously. For some reason it goes down real easy for me. Hopefully you don't have to wait a long time to do Protein Shakes. That should help stave of hunger. I had to wait 1 week and it was so very hard. Good luck!

Ha ha ha. Dont worry plenty of people will be on here soon to tell you that you arent really hungry it is all in your head. It is just head hunger, feel free to tell those people to f**k off. I was starving the morning after surgery. Once you are able to take in puree and soft foods you should start to feel better.

I'm only 4 days in...Surgery on the 9th. I've felt hungry a little but most of the time I haven't. Stay hydrated. That helps.

Yeah I think you're absolutely right it's not head Hunger if I think back to the last time I ate anything even a Protein Shake it was 3 days ! of course I was hungry. Thank you for the validation. I hope it gets better when I get on the pureed as well. Then I got to think well I can be hungry all I want I still can only take a limited amount in.
