Funny you would state 4 months. I became hungry at exactly four months. Had some cravings pretty much for my first time, ate some icecream, went to a support group and GOT A GRIP on ME.

As far as regular hunger, I just got use to it, I drink more Water, I still am eating a 1/2 cup of food, anything over that amount I feel nauseous so I am thankful for that.

Also, whenever I get hungry it is usually time to eat, ya know sometimes when I am out in the world I forget to eat so overall it is not a problem.

Head hunger can be a problem but I do my best to control it and if I don't bring the food home my success rate is great.

I am for months out now myself and I've found that I'm not hungry anymore. After my surgery I was so hungry so the time but now I have to remind myself to eat. It's crazy also cuts I can eat more but I find that eating crunchy foods is much easier for me.

I am almost 3 moths out and was feeling so hungry at the very beginning as well and it seems the hunger is finally slowing down for me too! So glad you posted that!

I am 4 months out and have a lot of hunger. It isn't a severe as before surgery, but it is real. I find that sipping Water will sometimes make it go away, if not, a couple of bites of a Protein Bar usually works. It is a little disappointing because I was lead to believe that I wouldn't experience hunger after surgery.

      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?
