hunger pains? hmmmm....i feel nothing



Recommended Posts

Well I was banded on Monday, and I dont have any hunger pains. I drink my Protein Shakes and Water because I know I have to, but I dont feel the fullness either. Is this normal?

Anyone else experience this? does it go away and return back to normal?

I felt the same way for about 6 days. Then the hunger kicked in for me! Now on day 7 I can eat mushie foods and that has helped, I'm not hungry again. Enjoy the not being hungry feeling just make sure you keep drinking,.

It took me a week to start to feel hungry. Now I am trying to differentiate between head hunger and stomach hunger. Especially on days like today when my 5 little monkeys seem to forget that we have rules here!

I'm so glad you asked this question! I was banded on the 8th and I still have not felt hungry. It's very, very weird! Don't get me wrong, I like it, but it's very strange. I've been living off of Water and Isopure.< /p>

I was not hungry at all until about day 5 or 6, then it really kicked in. I wanted to chew! Oh well, I still have another 11 days of full liquids - I will get there! A lot of it was head hunger, not real hunger. That is something I am going to have to learn to deal with and not respond to.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
