Hello all, my name is Sam. Glad this forum was recommended to me. :huggie:
I had my surgery on January 9, and things have been going very well, I think, except for one thing. But first, the good: I lost 21 pounds in five days, and have yet to re-weihgt myself since the 15th. My knees and ankles don't hurt anymore, I don't snore anymore, I haven't had any indigestion at all since the surgery, and I don't wake up 3-4 times per night to use the bathroom. I sleep straight through since I don't know when! The one thing bothering me is that I am constantly hungry. I eat the amount of food prescribed by my doctor, and it does fill up my pouch, but the stomach below the pouch growls continually. So I'm full up top, and hungry down below! Does anyone experience this? Will this go away?? I don't feel like having constant hunger pains for the rest of my life. The band was supposed to take care of that, I thought. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
