I STILL haven't

Hi all :). I'm 3 weeks post-op, and am still waiting for that magical day when I won't be hungry. Has anyone else out there gone through this? I am literally hungry; it's not head hunger. I find that it hits me worst at night. It happens whether I'm otherwise occupied or not. I hate eating more than 3 times a day, but these last few days I've been feeding the hunger with low-fat, low-cal, and low-carb foods like cooked veggies. These seem to fill me up for a time at minimal expense to my daily intake. I'm just curious as to how many other people have gone through this. I read so often about people who have lost their appetite and forget to eat. Not me! LOL Then there are people who can get full on 1/4 cup of food. Not me again! BUT, since my Dr. says to keep taking in only 1/4 cup at a time, I have been doing my best to follow his orders. I know that my pouch will hold more than that though, because I did eat 6 oz of peas & carrots the other day (sorry, but I was HUNGRY!). Personal insights and donations welcome ;). SuzAnne in Utah
