Yes, I feel I can eat a cow....well a big juicy burger would be good too. But again I feel it is getting better, I just can't stand that feeling of being hungry. Thanks for your response.

I thinki I am a little better today. I ate 2 oz of cream of wheat with soy milk and splenda, it was delicious and I feel better. I guess I just need to give it more time. Tomorrow is barely 1 week. Thanks for your insight.

I drink 8 oz of Protein with ground up oatmeal in am, then 2 oz of yogurt, Isopure between, 2 oz of broth, crystal lite, 2 oz cottage chesse, more liquids. And I am starving, what do you think?

Thanks for that. So when you have hunger pains and eat they go away, right? Cause right now it seems I get hungrier the more I consume

So glad to hear your hunger pangs went away. I feel more hunger after I consume liquids, its crazy! But I feel inspired knowing yours stopped after a couple of weeks. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I am so sorry to hear that. Did you report this to your dr? If so what did doc say? How long post surgery did you begin getting the pains?

Thank you. I am so excited to be part of this group

I am 5 days post and have been struggling with the hunger pangs. It seems as if when I eat (drink), i get hungry. This is not good. i have emailed my dr. this morning and am waiting for a response. I do want to tell you while I was in the hospital I told him I was hungry and why is that when you supposedly removed the portion of the stomach that has the hunger hormones, etc. He told me that that is only try for 50% of the patients, that the other 50% will still experience hunger pangs. He told me that if I would have asked he would have told me that, I didn't think I had to ask when he had just told me he would be cutting out that portion of the stomach, so I assumed that it would be the same for all patients. He told me then that it should subside, but to me it is getting worse. Well, have a great day!

So exciting. I am 5 days post and can't wait to start putting on my old "skinny jeans".

Awesome!

Hi there. I am 5 days post and I have the same complaint. I am HUNGRY!!!!!!!! I have emailed my dr. this morning and am waiting for reply. I just wanted you to know that you are NOT alone. I will let you know his response as soon as I get it. I am in California. Have a great day!

Hi Krista, I just registered on this site and was drawn to your post as I am also 5 days out. I had the sleeve done on Wed. 9/14/11 and came home Friday 9/16/11. I was wondering are you experiencing "hunger pangs"? I feel hungry constantly?????
