I am only about 1 1/2 wks out. I had a open RNY and I am doing EVERYTHING by the book - drinking all the water - having all my protein -taking all my meds and I still seem to be getting hungry. Like I could eat a horse hungry. I am gonna call my dietician tommorow,but has anyone else had that problem or anyone help me with mine....... Thanks ~Jess~

Hi Jess- In the very beginning, I got what I called "head hunger" because I thought I was hungry all the time but when I put something in my mouth, I realized I wasn't hungry at all. You were used to eating large meals with lotsa calories and now ur down to just about nothing. It eventually got better and I had to remind myself to eat at mealtimes. In the meantime, try chewing SF bubblegum or suck on SF hard candies if your doctor ok's it, I even resorted to chewing on straws when I didnt have either around. I found if I had something to do with my mouth, I forgot my hunger pains. -Janine
