Derith, first a big HUG for you...I really can relate to you at your stage of the Journey. Head hunger seems to be a big problem for you right now. Your brain still wants the food you used to eat...It is not easy fighting it but you can do it. When I had that problem my doc told me to chew on beef jerky until it passed. Your hormones are running amuck right now too, all part of the surgery at first. I am praying this all straightens out for you soon and you can enjoy the "ride". Take care Derith!!![](https://images.obesityhelp.com/pronet/147/147882/maureen879d028fa77134e3.jpeg)
