Head Hunger or Real Hunger

I have a question for the Post ops....How many of you all actually get hungry? And at what stage did this reoccur? The reason that I am asking is because I have yet to experience hunger which I guess is a good thing.... but I do find myself wanting to eat just because so I guess that is considered Head Hunger. That's when I try to do other things to keep my mind off of food. Sometimes if works and sometimes it don't. If it don't work and I eat I try to do something high in protein which is good for me. How do you all handle your hunger? What snacks do you use to take the hunger edge away? Diamond

I have NOT experienced real hunger yet.....I eat because my brain tells me to eat ... you have not eaten yet....or I feel weak and tired....and my body needs energy. NOW, somedays I eat mainly because my head is hungry and I find myself snacking (nuts, seeds) all day. I'm glade I still don't feel real hunger because I think my days balance out....in the way of eating that is Good luck.

Same here -- no actual hunger yet! But lately I've been stressed at work and have been experiencing some head hunger at night. It's a battle, but so far I'm winning. I think the key for me is to lose the stress as quickly as possible. Deb -160
