Hunger after bypass

[Su2ie]

I'm nearly 7 weeks post bypass and haven't really felt hungry since the op. Every now and then I think I feel a bit hungry but having difficulty distinguishing real hunger and head hunger.

Just wondering what other bypassers experience is with feeling hungry.

It will be 3 months tomorrow since my bypass and I agree I dont feel hungry I sometimes think im hungry but I think its head hunger along side maybe needing a drink im practicing mindfulness and it seems to be working for me so long may it continue

Didn't feel hungry for the first year...it will return and then the hard works begins..

I felt hungry after about 8/9 months out. Just listen to your body. As overeaters, our brains have to relearn the hunger signals as we've usually eaten when not hungry for many years!

I don't feel hunger at al really not like pre op days. It does feel different. I do have cravings for food but that's not hunger that is old fashioned greed on my part wanting things which do not uit my body. If you can stay a way from sweet things forever don't go back to bscuits if you can help it can be your biggest downfall. xx

I don't feel hungry at all, just get head cravings of wanting something,
