Hunger

Soo, I read that the part of the stomach with the hunger hormone is removed. Do you all still get the hungry feeling or what?

I am about 3 weeks out and for me I do still have it but it is not nearly as intense as it was. My Fluid intake is close to 100 oz per day and I take nexium 2 x per day, so I know my hunger is not related to these issues. It is actual hunger.

Apparently the pancreas also makes Grehlin and who knows just how much of my fundus was removed. I do know that the dr said my stomach had an unusual shape..... whatever that means. The point is I do still feel true hunger but I am more in control of it and it does not make me go crazy like a horse with a feed bag on it's head. I don't go to town with everything I see and smell anymore.
