Today will be day ten of Optifast. I'm 15 pounds lighter. The weight loss seems to be slowing a bit. The hunger has passed. 

Pis this normal?Will the hunger stay away after surgery? 

Im scheduled for Wednesday, March 23! I'm so anxious and excited all at the same time.

best part! I'm almost off of insulin!

My hunger hasn't returned since surgery (I'm nearly 11 months out). Some have hunger return eventually, others don't. 

There are times I know j need to eat something, it like a weird subconscious awareness, but my stomach hasn't been 'growling hungry' since early in the pre op diet.

From day one i told myself if I feel 'hunger' I need water. 13 years post op and at goal. Works for me anyway

I'm 5 weeks out, (not that far, I know) but I literally have to force myself to eat.  I still am probably not getting enough calories.  And I have completely lost my "sweet tooth", which was always my downfall.  I hope it stays away :)

Good luck, girl. I was scared out of my mind too, but it's over before you know it.

I don't feel hunger like I used to, but my body knows when I need to eat.
