Do you get hungry?

I don't get hungry but I will get an empty feeling. As others have said, sometimes all I need is something to drink. I hope this never goes away. It makes controlling what I eat so easy.

 Are you on a PPI? The extra acid in your tummy can mimic hunger pains.

Vacationlover, the PPI takes away the acid, so it should remove the hunger, if anything. Anyway, I also get hungry, sometimes it's pretty bad if I don't go ahead and eat. But it doesn't take much to stop it; in fact drinking all the fluid we are supposed to have have helps a lot. I am also on PPI so stomach acid isn't causing me to be hungry, It is NOT in my head, either. I also hoped I'd be lucky and not get hungry, or else not so much, but I just have to make sure to eat something that's allowed.
