Hunger?

For the last few days I have been feeling constantly physically hungry. Like that growly feeling when your stomach is empty. I haven't had much of an appetite but I fed it a Greek yogurt this morning and it did nothing to quell the growling.

It doesn't feel painful like acid, and I'm still taking Prilosec, so what the heck?

When I'm truly hungry, I have to do dense protein ... I do get very physically hungry, I think that's normal but idk.

I get hungry on a regular basis, I'm not one of the lucky ones that don't ever get hungry, unfortunately. 

Dense protein is the way to go!

Definitely not hunger. I ate some egg and sausage and it didn't help at all. Now it's a burning feeling. I think I forgot my Prilosec yesterday so I'm hoping if it's acid it will calm down.

Your new stomach will make a lot of noise.  I am 6 years out and it still makes noise.  Don't confuse that noise with hunger it's not.  Your intestines have been majorly change and they are bound to rebel a little.  My stomach actually gets noisier AFTER I feed it. 

Your stomach is healing and you may have a little pain.  If it is really bad, please call your surgeon.  You don't want an ulcer to develop.  

I had pain for awhile and the surgeon explained that sometimes the motility in the intestines takes awhile to come back after surgery. The food is not being pushed through fast enough and that food backlog can cause pain.  He told me to go back to liquids for a few days and then try more solid foods later in the week to see if it improved.

I sometimes gets crazy hungry for a few days about 5 days before a period is due to come.
