hi there

you are definitely not unique with this problem/situation

usually once you start solids your restriction will take hold

hopefully then your hunger will subside/go away

good luck with pureed stage and then.............

great that you are getting all your Protein and Water in

both of the above will be essential for the rest of your life

will help with your weight loss bringing you success!!

don't panic

things usually improve one day at a time

you are on the road to a healthier, happier, longer life

enjoy the ride

good luck

You aren't alone! I'm 6 weeks post op (today) and I'm hungry all day. I did notice more hunger when taking the Omeprazole, so I stopped for now. Still hungry, but not ravenous. I eat every 2-3 hours, but it's very little. I have 4-5 150-200 calorie mini meals per day. That's the only way I can tame the hunger.

I feel ya, I do feel like I might be hungry at times -- but more because I feel lethargic and tired all the time. I'm not a week out of surgery yet, though, so it's understandable that I feel like this.

Hope the pureed stage goes better. Think up lots of yummy recipes that you could have as pureed food.

Thank you everyone. I just didn't think I would be feeling as hungry as I do everyday not being able to hold much. But I noticed the more gas I let I go the more I began to feel like this
