In two days I will be 3months out of surgery and all the sudden I'm hungry all the time. I feel like I could eat a full meal, when only last week 3 bites of chicken made my stomach hurt. What happened?? How do I fix this??

I'm 10 weeks post op & I'm having the same issue. I can only eat 3oz & then i'm full. I try to drink Water & that helps with this hungry feeling.

I'm a little over two months and I noticed if I don't keep my carbs down to 30g or less, I'm hungry all day. Also this is what happens to me if I don't drink enough Water.< /p>

I too get the munchies when my carbs get too high, even if it's "good' carbs like apples, grapes, strawberries, or pineapple. Low glycemic carbs from Beans, lentils, squash, and other Fiber rich vegetables don't have the same effect.

Here's my blog post about the 1st time I realized what was happening to me when I ate carbs post-op. http://www.bariatricpal.com/blog/9018/entry-31170-confession-time-the-spaghetti-monster-almost-got-me/

      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.
