Help I'm sooo hungry and over a year out
Ok I had the gastric bypass 6/24/11 and things are going good. I having an issue about being hungry all the time even after i eat and its not like my mind is playing tricks. When i eat i only will eat a bite or 2 and im "full" to where i cant eat or stuffed but it feel like it is not satified i dont know how to really explain it like now im hungry but just ate In dont know can some one help but i am going to start my protien again because this feels so weird
The daily protein requirements are a lifetime commitment to good health and to satisfying hunger, so if you've been slacking you need to get back on track. One concern is that after a year out you're full after just a few bites. By now you should be able to eat around a cup of food without feeling full, or ill unless you're not chewing well enough and food is getting stuck.
Hunger issues can also be caused by a number of issue too though. Ulcers make one feel hungry and unusual. A stretched stoma can lead to feelings of hunger because food empties from the stomach to the intestines too quickly. There might be an opening in the staple line causing food to go in the remnant stomach, so you wouldn't feel full as well. There are a few other possibilities, but with something like this a guess isn't good enough. Call your doctor and have him/her evaluate you, soon.
