I'm not sure if nexium is the same but our little stomach still create acid sometimes the acid in your stomach feels like hunger and the acid causes heartburn I would check the active ingredient in both or ask your doctor . It really helped me

I'm 2.5 months out. Dr. Alvarez was my surgeon and he does a YouTube video series called Askdra. He addresses all sorts of topics including inflammation, stalls, head hunger, etc.
Most people on here recommend logging food. I do so using an app called Baritastic. There are a lot of them. If your physical activity increases over time your hunger may too as you need more energy for certain activities. Recently I started walking a few miles per day. I drink plenty of fluids which curbs my appetite but I am slightly hungrier than before. Carbs/sugar tends to be my weakness. I use sweetener mostly but there are carbs in a lot of foods. If you minimalize carbs your weight should be fine
I will be 2 years out in 8 more days. Acid and thirst can mimic hunger for me still. If I have eaten within an hour or so and feel that feeling I will take and antacid and/or drink some water before going to food.
Shakes do nothing for my hunger. I have to have food. Usually an egg and bacon and sometimes grits for breakfast.
I am 2yrs out how far are you out? How do you know head hungry or acid? I only allow 1/2 cup of food two times a day morning I have a shake in decaf coffee.. I'm afraid of gaining weight but I guess that's how vsg people are sorry for rumble on
That's how my surgeon put it. Right after surgery your sleeve is swollen and need inflammation brought down. Antacids will help with that. For me, I felt extremely hungry after surgery and was told my brain interpreted pain signals for hunger. It took between a week to 10 days for that feeling to go away. I take a prescription reflux med at lunch time and an over the counter pill in the morning a d evening. Keeps everything in balance for me.
Last time I was in Onederland I was in the 6th grade..12 years old. Sadly it didn't feel like Onderland when i was about 50 to 75lbs heavier than my peers were.
Edited to say Congratulations!

Just a guess. Hunger pains can be confused with heartburn and Nexium is for heartburn. So if you take Nexium and it takes care of heartburn you wont feel hungry ?
Nexium is that the same? Didn't know that heart burn could trigger hunger
I heard Nexium help to control your hunger cause of bad heart burn any thoughts would be great thanks
