Hi All I had a gastric bypass done on the 16th December 2019 and followed all the guidelines. I have been having soup, yogurt or jelly but now before I go on to the puree foods stage I find I am hungry all the time. I was told that this wouldn't happen. I can also drink as much as I want all the time. I am just confused as to why I am hungry all the time, when at first I was always full. Has anyone else felt like this? Weight loss has stopped now. I have lost a total of 12Lb after gaining 2LB last few days.

Thankyou

Are you getting your protein in? I just had a little stall and I started eating (drinking) more protein and started losing again. I think that could be head hunger you have or the protein could also help with that.

I am with above you hare Head Hungry! You are not hungry your body is confused and playing a game

You know, I am four months out and when I read this, I just realized I am finally not "feeling hungry" all the time. For the first nearly 4 months... my stomach was always present in my mind with nerve endings and rumblings that felt like co stant hunger. I have known all along that what I was feeling couldn't be constant hunger... but that constant feeling sure did a great job mimicking hunger. So, after the first couple weeks I realized I needed to have regular intervals where I allowed myself to eat on a schedule. Every 2 1/2 hours I allowed my self to eat if I felt I needed to, but no more frequent than that. Lately the intervals have been further apart. But now I am realizing that constant feeling is finally gone and my real hunger is much more obvious. I guess it took my stomach 4 months to fully heal and figure out what it really needs! In the meantime, drink your water to fill in the gap between stomach confusion and real hunger.
