Hunger Question

[RFW 19]

I am almost 8 weeks post op ,,, at my 6 week post op check up I would have about 4 oz of Protein & 1 cup vegetables & feel extremely satisfied. Now i feel hungry all the time. Would this be normal? Why would this be? Do I need a fill? Im scheduled to go back the 1st week of sept. Can I get a fill before then? Kinda feel like the next few weeks would be a waste if the band was not helping. I feel like I'm now on a diet before I had the band, always hungry & starving myself. Any advise would be appreciated.

It's very possible you need a fill. Some doctors, like mine, make you wait 4 weeks between fills. You didn't say whether you had a fill at your 6 week check up. If you didn't you might call your doctor and ask if you can schedule to come in for one sooner than Sept.

I have not had a fill yet.

if you're not feeling satisfied and hungry between meals, it sounds very much like you need a fill, even if only a small one, especially since you haven't had one yet since surgery. i'm trying to remember when i had my first fill (going back 2.5 years and it's hard to remember heh) and i believe it was about eight weeks after surgery

I think a small fill would help. Call you doctor and ask them.
