why do I feel hunger pangs in my stomach still?

At less than 2 weeks post-op my surgeon has me on solids (have been since being in hospital) I am having a horrible time distinguishing between the sensations I'm feeling below. I was able to eat the toppings off of two medium slices of pizza including peppers, black olives, mushrooms and cheese this evening. My stomach was still rumbling like it was hungry. The old sensation I would have felt before surgery. Now I feel I ate a lot to begin with...it seems too much, however I feel physically that I could have handled more. Why am I not getting a true full feeling on such a large amount. I honestly didn't feel hungry when finished...but I still have the old grumbling. I'm so scared this is not working. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -Kim
