wanting to eat more after I had my baby

Before I got preg I didn't even get hungry but now after having my baby ( he is 3 months old ) I stay hungry and I can eat more and I feel awful. I don't know what to do. I don't want to gain weight cause I worked so hard on losing 150 pounds. I gained 46 during pregnancy and lost all but 11 pounds. I just don't want to gain my weight back because of so many health problems. What do you all suggest? Has my pouch stretched?

Are you nursing?  If so, that will bring on hunger like nothing else!  I gained 20 lbs with my pre wls baby during the 9 months that I nursed because I was so ravenously hungry all the time.  Thank god with my second baby my restriction saved me from being able to over do it too much while breast feeding.  So, I guess none of this is very helpful to your question, but may offer up an explanation at least.

I am not nursing. I have no idea why I can eat more and want to eat often.
