Do you feel hungry? I don't remember feeling hungry so early on. I remember feeling full easy and it even caused me to stop drinking as much Water (Bad idea I got dehydrated of course) but its cause I was still swollen from surgery.

Main point. I don't remember feeling hungry. If you feel hungry and can't get the full feeling.

Surgery date 7/25/12

liquids go right thru.

And your pouch nerves probably are still not awake. Im 4 weeks today and never feel anything. No hunger or fullness.

I felt hungry at first so you're not alone:). And now after 6 weeks I hardly ever do. I just think the liquids were not so filling for me and of course everybody is different:)

My surgery was 4/1/13.

I never feel full or hungry. I have some head hunger of course, but nothing real.

You have to remember. Most or all of the nerves to your stomach were cut. Nerves only grow back so much at a time and sometimes not at all. A friend of mine had this years ago. She hasn't felt hungry since. So I guess everyone is different.

I felt hungry, I felt the doctor failed, and my body failed. I thought i would be forever suck in this fat body. But it was all in the head, I had to adjust to the new me. It's normal for some. But it's apart of becoming new

I'm never hungry at 6 months out. I have to remind myself to eat. I have head hunger but I ignore that. I do feel full real quick while eating.

I get some head hunger related to smells especially. But if I eat slowly and do lots of Protein I fill up quick. I really fill up quicker on hard protein like chicken than soft like yogurt.

      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.
