2.5 weeks post-op and I am sooooo hungry. ?

I don't know what's wrong here. I am having hunger pains all the time. For example, I've been hungry all evening - for dinner I ate 1/4 cup of angel hair pasta with 1/2 tbspn of fat free ricotta (all okay with my doc). I took almost thirty minutes to eat and I am just as hungry now as I was before. Also, I haven't had any problems eating or drinking. Chicken, tuna, pasta, toast, protein drinks. All go down just fine...but I am often hungry. I can drink A LOT of water without any problems. I measure my food as prescribed and only eat that much, because I am afraid to eat until I am satisfied (I feel like that would be too much food). I follow all the "rules" because I want this surgery to be effective. I have lost 24.5 pounds already, but I can't live being this hungry all the time. Is something wrong? Any advice??
