8 Days Post OP-VSG to RNY
Glad things are going well. If hungry it's likely you need more liquid. It can't be true hunger as your nerves aren't healed. IT could also be head hunger but I'm betting it's the amount of liquid. If head hunger just do something to distract yourself. Or get away from your possible triggers. Good luck

Soon after VSG, hunger is usually acid. Acid will mimic hunger. Are you on an acid reducer?

Most surgeons put people on a prescription PPI for at least six months after surgery. VSGers especially are prone to acid issues. Many have to have the dosage and/or type of PPI altered until they find something that works.
Stay on top of it. Acid can drive you crazy.
