I'm 28 months post op and have yet to feel hunger like I had before. I eat a bit of food about every 3 to 4 hours to keep my blood sugar stable. If I go 6 hours I will feel weak but not really hunger like before.

Hi Im not a vet but little over two years out like grim after nine months hunger came back for me.

I am only a year out.  I rarely feel hunger like I did before.  I am dreading its return.

I do get hungry, usually about 3 hours after eating. But it isn't ravenous, just the empty feeling, and easier to ignore than pre surgery.  It's also very easy to satisfy.  I can literally feel instantly satisfied by eating a couple bites of something.

Awesome, thanks!

I'm just over 2 weeks post RNY and my hunger came back full force after just a few days. :(  So I've been dealing with how to manage hunger on the soft-foods-phase and it's been a pretty big disappointment. The trick seems to be to delay drinking any liquids for at LEAST an hour after eating, while also somehow managing to drink enough liquid to avoid dehydration. Fortunately, I am tolerating food pretty well so have done well with (very carefully chewed) ground meat, eggs, cheese, etc. helping to manage satiety. I fill up quickly but I was really not imagining that I would be dealing with this for a while.

If I had to be one of a tiny minority, why couldn't it be the tiny minority who wins the lottery or something? :)
