12 says post op, best I've felt, yet regret I did it

Are you sipping Water throughout the day? Or perhaps crystal light or popsicles? This may help your hunger. You will be on soft foods soon and that's a game changer. Hang in there. This is temporary.

Sprocket, me, too! There were all kinds of crazy feelings and sounds in my tummy at first! It was similar to hunger but it wasn't. I think it was just my stomach dealing with the surgery. It went away before too long.

@@nprcowboy Hang in there! I'm only a few days farther along than you, but when I was researching the surgery, I read the forums for months, and noticed that no one more than 6 weeks out ever had anything negative to say / regrets about surgery.

I am still struggling at 3 weeks out and learning how to eat with a sleeve. I don't regret it, but I do have some pretty horrible moments. I'm hoping that by 6 weeks, I'll have the hang of it and be feeling better.

I'm having more hunger than I expected, too. I think it's mostly head hunger, and drinking Water helps (while also helping me get my 64 oz in.

I'm sorry you're struggling. Talk to your doctor, give it time, and good luck!
