hunger ?? help!!

I feel hungery and I am only 10 days out. Its not head hunger... its hunger hunger. I did not think this would happen. Tomorrow i move to pureed food thank the lord. Help!!

I don't have suggestions for you, just thought I would post as I can totally relate. I had surgery 8/28 but I was the same. Never really felt full either. Not sure I had the surgery . I believe when you can introduce more foods and textures that will improve. It did for me. Take Care Shelly

Hi Shelly - I had the same thing. My doctor thought that it could be an ulcer. It ended up that I didn't, but I would suggest talking to your surgeon about maybe doing an endoscopy. I can say that mine got better over time. I now eat 6 small meals and my hunger pangs have dropped off considerably. Good luck Dianne

How often do you eat throughout the day? Some Dr's only want you eating 3x a day, my Dr has me eating 6 small meals/snacks per day and that really helps curb my hunger (both head and real). Moving to pureed should help too...food sticks with you so much better than liquids. I know that some days I am extra hungry (others I barely eat) and for these times I enjoy SF cocoa or chocolate milk and that seems to help me get through the pangs til I can eat. I also use SF hard candy or gum (gasp! I might get flamed for that one) to keep myself from eating too much. Good luck ! Christine
