I am currently still in the hospital, I had my sleeve surgery this morning...I am having NO problems getting in Water, popsicles, broth. AND I'm kinda wondering WHY have I felt hungry all day???? What's going on? Is it REALLY HUNGER???

It might be stomach acid - they should have you on a proton pump inhibitor already but check to make sure (and especially make sure they have you on one when you go home). It could also be "head hunger". The surgery fixes the stomach...the brain can take awhile to catch up [emoji4]

I had something earlier and a patch behind my ear. He prescribed Omneprezerole (spelling) for when I go home.

My husband was sleeved in April this year and said that he thought he was hungry for a day after the surgery. But by the end of the first day home, he didn't feel that way. He believes that it was "in his head" that he needed food. He wasn't really hungry.

Just his experience. Hope this helps. 😃

I asked the nurse, she thinks so too. My brain knows I havent eaten for the last week, so I SHOULD be hungry. It stinks because I feel like I'm STARVING!

I am 2 days post op. Not feeling hungry at all. But continuously sipping on broth and Protein Drink.

I'm hoping once I'm home and doing the same thing it will pass.

Today has actually been HARDER! I had my first real nausea episode, it was fast but bad. I'm having problems with Water, Only getting popsicles in. I hope it gets better. I'm ALREADY having a little buyers remorse!

Did you take big sips? Maybe that's why you got sick? Not going to lie that's my potential deal breaker w the surgery. So nervous. I hope you feel better!

I hope you're feeling at least a little better now.

My hubs had a similar experience with the nausea after surgery. And his first night home he wondered if he'd made the best decision. By his second night home, he was feeling much better.

Two months out, his only regret is not doing it sooner.

Sending you prayers and wishes for comfort and fast healing!

It's only happened twice, and I feel it when it's coming on. I have to find SOMETHING I can drink, I don't want to go back to the hosp for dehydration

I was (or thought I was) pretty hungry the first two weeks. Once I started on purée it changed. I rarely feel actual hunger now but when I do feel it I am super hungry, like I gotta eat right now hungry.
Usually things improve and the buyers remorse fades away. Hope you feel better.

I can't wait for it to go away. I feel good physically, no pain at all. I am a little light headed and afraid of getting nauseaus, so I am not drinking as much as I shpuld be, although, the Crystal light is DEFINITELY going down easier than Water. Did u feel light headed in the first few days?
