Tomorrow will be 4 weeks since I had my Surgery, I was doing great for the first 2 1/2 weeks, weight was falling off now the scale has not moved  well it actually has been going up and down 2 numbers all week. It very depressing and I feel hungry a lot, my husband said it is because I do not eat enough I think I do. I do think is could be head hunger and im not sure how to deal with it.

This morning I woke up at 510am, I had one hard boiled egg at 815am, then I had one protein shake at 1145am and I am still hungry I feel it in my stomach that I am hungry today. I went on a mile walk before my protein shake. I know I have only had maybe one glass of water today(Yes I know not good). Any advice would be great thank you!

Definitely drink more water.  it will help.  when i am thirsty it equates to hunger.  Try drinking more and see if it helps the cravings.

Thank you, I know I am slacking on water intake during the day and then at night I drink like crazy. I just hope I didnt do something wrong to make the weight dropping stop and the hunger come on. Plus that time of the month shoul dbe here anytime now....

I'm doing the exact same thing.   I did go down a pound.   But that's 1 pound in over a week.   Period is definitely on its way.

Seriously !!!! This early out if you feel hunger it's your body saying it needs water !!!

I used to also have difficulties getting my water in (I had the sleeve), yet somehow got a few apps to help track it. It got better, and now when I drink enough of water, I don't feel as hungry. One of the apps was of course MFP, and I also like Bariatric IQ.

Had surgery at Nordbariatric, with surgeon A. Maleckas.

Are you taking a PPI? Excess stomach acid can also make you feel feel hungry.
