3 Wks Post - Hungry 30 min after

[spskcmo 7]

Hi.

I'm finding that as my stomach heals, my hunger comes back 30 minutes after a meal. I'm getting 70-90 Protein. Help!

Most likely It's not hunger. Acid will feel like hunger, dehydration will feel like hunger and that dreaded head hunger. If you're getting all of your Protein and liquid in, you have to find a way to pass the time and ignore that feeling. This is one of the hardest things to overcome.

I felt hungry post-op until I started religiously taking the one that's hard to spell. Omeprezole? You should have rx for it, and there is an OTC version.

And as the previous poster said, YES getting in all your Protein and Clear liquids, together with acid control, should take care of it. I've been there though. Good luck!!

I take my Omeprezole daily and I too often feel hunger from my belly, especially in the middle of the night. I ignore it, it's all I can do.

I've taken omeprezopole for years (Barrett 's) and unfortunately I don't think this is MY issue. I think the Water (OVER doing it) and Protein is my best bet.
