Feeling hungry all the time....

[ashleyrowles 15]

I am 3 weeks post-op and on soft & mushy foods. I weigh myself every Thursday morning and I didn't lose a single pound this week which has me extremely disappointed and frustrated. Furthermore, I'm feeling hungry ALL THE TIME! I don't want to over eat to the point of discomfort or dumping, but my stomach has that empty/burning sensation most of the day. Has anyone else experienced this? What did you do and will it pass? Will I get to the point of feeling satisfied?

Many people report that prior to reaching the solid stage, they feel a need to chew. Chewing is a normal part of the digestive process.

Since you mentioned a burning sensation in your stomach, it might be possible that you developed an ulcer. Here is a link about that condition. http://bariatric.stopobesityforlife.com/obesity-surgery/correcting-obesity/bariatric-surgery-risks/ulcers-or-strictures/
