about a week post op, i began to literally get hungry every 2-3 hours. It was insane!!! I felt like a toddler on a bottle schedule since i was literally eating baby food with protein powder mixed in, pureed soups in baby food jars, and Gatorade zero. but once I transitioned from purees to soft and then regular textured foods, that went away. now, i have to schedule my meals as I don't feel hungry at all. I think it all comes down to how your body heals and how your system reacts to the surgery.
