Hunger pains

[alohaodub813 0]

How soon after your surgery did you start to get hunger pains? Also my hunger sneaks up so quickly on me and if I don't eat in 10 minutes I start to get extremely nauseous. Does anyone else experience this?

I go from hungry to queasy in a matter of seconds....it IS getting a little better and I don't get hungry very often so it's livable but I have to keep crackers or nuts around for emergency feelings . I was probably 6 weeks out before I started feeling hunger, prior to that I just got queasy as heck if I waited too long before eating. Learning curve....darn this learning curve!

I had actual hunger for 1 day about 6 days post op and freaked out like "oh shit it didnt work!". I don't feel "hunger" at all anymore like I used to. I've learned I'm actually hungry now when I get queasy.

I'm only 6 days out and hungry!! I'm just head hungry though, I think. I can't stand all the food everyone is eating and how food is everywhere!! It's driving me nuts. But to satisfy me I added Protein to my Water and crystal light and then had strained cream of mushroom Soup for dinner. That really helped, I'm really feeling full and got in all of my liquids with no problems today.

I had my RNY 8/24/2009 and haven't filt hungry since. I think it's what has helped keep the weight off.

I had head hunger post op. mostly cause I missed chewing. Now I am 8 months post op, and I started to get hunger pains 4 months post op. people told me it was head hunger and not real. However I'm still feeling the same and it's actually getting worse. I get so nauseous when I'm hungry that it makes it hard for me to eat but I know I have to or it's only going to get worse. I try eating every couple hours to avoid it but it sneaks up so quickly sometimes I'm just like what the hell? Or I feel that I just barely ate and once again I'm like what the hell?
