Is It Normal To Feel Super Hungry After Eating 2-3 Hrs



Recommended Posts

It would be more helpful if we had more information like when was your procedure, how much do you eat? What stage of the diet are you in? :)

It is normal to get a little hungry within a couple of hours. I do, but I also am looking into drinking more Water now, because some of my hunger is thirst and I just didn't know how to recognize it. You can have a small snack in between meals to hold you over. My NUT told me to eat some fruit. So I do. Hang in there and CONGRATS on your successes! :)

A little banana is good, the Protein Shake is the better choice. :) It will also count as a liquid so it does take care of thirst. I can only eat 1/2 a medium banana at one time. :)

I'm 2 months out and still feel hungry, though I don't know if its 'hunger hunger' or 'head hunger'. Still learning.

I didn't want to get into the habit of snacking between meals, but my dietician said it was OK, as long as it wasn't junk food. I tend to have some multigrain crackers with laughing cow cheese. Haven't really had much in the way of fruit, just some strawberries or bananas in my morning muesli.

I do want to get some Protein shakes though, just gotta find the right one.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
