Not Hungry At All Hmmm



Recommended Posts

3 days post op and I am not feeling hungry at all. I am focused on getting my Water and Protein in and walking but it is strange to not feel hungry.

I'm 3 days post op, and not hungry at all. Feels like a relief because before surgery I was always hungry!! lol. I hope this lasts a while.

You'll appreciate that feeling once you advance to foods and it'll keep you from wanting to overeat or indulge in things you shouldn't have.

**sigh** I woke up hungry :(

I thought, oh no! It didn't work! I'm still hungry all the time it feels like. Had mine done on 3/26 so I'm guessing until I get to the puree stage, I'll just be hungry.

That’s crazy everyone’s experience is totally different. I can hardly get things down and I’m not hungry at all. It makes me wonder if everyone is getting the same surgery but then again everybody’s experience is different. Hope you get to purée soon to help with this. I can even feel when I’m full

I had no hunger for almost a month. I am just over 2 months post op and get the occasional hunger feeling but not like it was prior to the WLS. I am, as stated above, taking full advantage of it because I know at some point, my hunger will come back like it was before.

Probably "head hungry" rather than actually hungry. I am nearly 4 months out and have yet to feel truly hungry.

I had sleeve to bypass a month ago and I’m not hungry. Yesterday I realized I hadn’t eaten in about 36 hours. I’m taking my Vitamins and drinking Gatorade zero. It’s nice not being hungry, though I do have some head hunger but I’m definitely not reaching Protein goals. I get full solids Thursday. I’m just bored with my food stage. I want to eat something real.

I do not have head hunger but I definitely feel hunger pangs in my stomach. I feel like I'm starving but I really don't care if I eat or not. But I eat anyway.

It's true, everyone's experience is very different! I'm about 6.5 months post op and I'm still don't feel hungry most of the time. Occasionally I am hungry for the first meal of the day, but that's about it. Mind you, I do find that some things look really good to eat, or smells delicious, but I'm not actually hungry and/or feel any physical need to eat it.

Ate you on a PPI? That sounds like stomach acid

      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.
