@jamielogical Understand your point, but realize your experience does not make an experienced, trained professional a "big fat liar".

I was saying that in a joking tone. I wasn't trying to be insulting to your surgeon or any surgeon. But I think if you took a poll of people on this site who are approaching a year or more post-op. 99.9999% of them will tell you they've experienced hunger in the first year. My surgeon certainly never made any kind of claim about not feeling ANY hunger for a full year.

I am 5 years out of my gastric sleeve and have not felt hungry one day since I had it, but here lately it seems I can eat al little more and I actually have a feeling of hunger was just wondering if this is normal or if I am eating to much at one time or to many times a day.

Has anyone else had this experience?

That's crap! You can/ and probably will feel hunger. I didn't for the first 6 months but I do now.

@@khaled - I think I mentioned all of this earlier except for the PPI. I can only suggest you call your NUT.

18 days out and i do feel real hunger, especially in the morning. The good news is that very little ends the hunger. If i have 1 egg scrambled i am full. In the past it would have been 2 eggs with cheese, toast and hashbrowns.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
