yes it is something that didnt seem to hit til after a year out i dont know why but up to that point i never had the same issues, but just after a year i noticed it.

I think maybe our stomachs are completely healed nerves everything by that point, and really start working how they will continue to do so for ever.

I have seen other vets like maureen, also bring it up, so i think its just another stage in our journey.

I know BEFORE surgery my brain did most of the eating so now I dont' know if it's actual physical hunger with me or my fat brain waking back up and wanting to eat more...whatever it is I just wi**** would STOP!!

THESE days I want to eat at night which is usually when I'm bored WHICH is what I USED to do PREOP which again makes me think it's my fat brain MORE then my body.  I also want CARBS, nothing "good for me" so I'm making sure to eat protein because I KNOW dense protein will FILL me up!!  Last night I wanted "something" so I made scrambled eggs and cheese.  Last week since I had made meatballs just because I would eat 2-3 of those and be fine.

Head Hunger.....I don't understand that at all.  Just kidding!!!  Protein first rule.  Lunch today was a lightly breaded baked chicken breast with some mixed veggies/rice and a small serving of refried beans.  That was at 12:30pm.  Now, it's 2pm and I'm having some sugar snap peas and crazing a nice copy of hot tea w/soy milk and stevia.  WTH?

For me?  If I were sleuthing out the reason for my hunger so soon, I would find it right there in orange and white!

All of those things ALONE go through me quick but all of those things in addition to the meat - just escort it down faster too.

I might just be a freak but meat in addition to anything just does not stay as long.  It never has.  I just assume it never will.

Oh yeah I have lunch EVERYDAY at 1 and it's usually a nice and filling lunch by 2:30-3:00 I'm LOOKING for something to eat.  NOW again in comparing this to preop this was my begin to graze time and at night was MY time too.

I think it's more my head then my body so lately I've been making me a crystal light drink to drink after lunch just BECAUSE I "know" I'm going to be hungry within an hour or two of eating.  Going to try to hold out till 4pm before I eat my snack of mock rice pudding.

It's a never ending struggle isn't it =(
