Not Hungry At All Hmmm

3 days post op and I am not feeling hungry at all. I am focused on getting my water and protein in and walking but it is strange to not feel hungry.

  • You'll appreciate that feeling once you advance to foods and it'll keep you from wanting to overeat or indulge in things you shouldn't have.

    I had sleeve to bypass a month ago and I’m not hungry. Yesterday I realized I hadn’t eaten in about 36 hours. I’m taking my vitamins and drinking Gatorade zero. It’s nice not being hungry, though I do

I'm 12 days post op and still not hungry.

I'm 3 days post op, and not hungry at all. Feels like a relief because before surgery I was always hungry!! lol. I hope this lasts a while.

**sigh** I woke up hungry :(

I thought, oh no! It didn't work! I'm still hungry all the time it feels like. Had mine done on 3/26 so I'm guessing until I get to the puree stage, I'll just be hungry.

That’s crazy everyone’s experience is totally different. I can hardly get things down and I’m not hungry at all. It makes me wonder if everyone is getting the same surgery but then again everybody’s experience is different. Hope you get to purée soon to help with this. I can even feel when I’m full

I had no hunger for almost a month. I am just over 2 months post op and get the occasional hunger feeling but not like it was prior to the WLS. I am, as stated above, taking full advantage of it because I know at some point, my hunger will come back like it was before.

Probably "head hungry" rather than actually hungry. I am nearly 4 months out and have yet to feel truly hungry.

I had sleeve to bypass a month ago and I’m not hungry. Yesterday I realized I hadn’t eaten in about 36 hours. I’m taking my vitamins and drinking Gatorade zero. It’s nice not being hungry, though I do have some head hunger but I’m definitely not reaching protein goals. I get full solids Thursday. I’m just bored with my food stage. I want to eat something real.

I do not have head hunger but I definitely feel hunger pangs in my stomach. I feel like I'm starving but I really don't care if I eat or not. But I eat anyway.

It's true, everyone's experience is very different! I'm about 6.5 months post op and I'm still don't feel hungry most of the time. Occasionally I am hungry for the first meal of the day, but that's about it. Mind you, I do find that some things look really good to eat, or smells delicious, but I'm not actually hungry and/or feel any physical need to eat it.

Ate you on a PPI? That sounds like stomach acid
