It could be that you have too much acid and need a stronger medicine, but for now I would just check if you are thirsty and make yourself a huge glass of tea with splenda and milk and see if you are still hungry. I find that my "hunger" is often thirst. Drink a big mug and see what happens. At least half the time, my hunger is resolved when I do this. Good luck.

Are you exercising harder? And are you drinking too close to meals? Are you eating dense meat?

I bet if you eat three oz's of steak without liquids you would stay fuller much longer.

BTW eating every two hours is actually a pretty good idea- just eat healthy.

I agree with Elina ( by the way... read your post earlier and awesome post Elina)

Anyhow, I didnt drink much water this week. Not on purpose...just happened. I didnt know it at first. Then all of a sudden.... I felt like you... Hungry every 2 hours. I thought I am messing up... or my bougie is was not small enough, or I am going to blow it..etc etc etc.... Then I started to pay attention to what I was drinking...and realized that I wasnt getting enough fluids in ( water). Once I started the water ( yesterday) my Hunger changed. What a difference!!! and i DO BELIEVE for me it was the fluid thing!!!

Does this fit for your situation?

Hope it gets better for you.

I think you need to change your acid medication because I too am experiencing this. I drink over 101 oz of water so clearly it's not enough water. But I find that I'm hungry like all of the time. But at the same time my doctor didn't take as much of my stomach as everyone elses doctor did. He only took 70% of my stomach so I'm going to be hungry more than most people. But I would change my acid medication.

Why did your doc only take 70% of your stomach? I thought standard was at least 85%.

Not sure (he is a military doctor) and he said he only took 2/3 of my stomach and that's what I came up with. It could be more....

Step away from the food. Relax and take 5 deep breathes and than think am I physically hungry or mentally hungry?

You will be surprised how many times your mentally hungry- and if so ask yourself why? Whayt is this really about?
