1 week out and a lil hungry

 Hello all I am healing fine walking around, resting, and sipping. But I am starting to get a little hungry and I am on liquids til I see my surgeon. Is this a normal feeling?????

Yes I think it is pretty normal.  I was hungry around day 10 post op.

Are you drinking protein drinks?  They may help.

I woke up from surgery starvinig, lol.  They said it was the stimulation the stomach was feeling from being cut upon.  But the hunger never went away until I stated solids. Holy moly, lol. Got full soooo quick!

being on the liquid diet is the worst! everything smelled and looked so good! but i stayed on it because when you eat something your not ready to eat the pain, gas or stomach upset is not worth it! i kept  full with protein shakes, and drinking liquid more ofthen, ( when ever i felt hungry!), i also kept occupied so not to think about regular food, the time will fly by!
