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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
