This happened to me as well and seems to be normal... every now and then, for no apparent reason, I am "hungrier" during the day.... I put "hungrier" in quotes... because it still doesn't compare to the HUNGER I used to have before surgery..... but on those days, I find myself wanting to eat more frequently. When that happens I too wondered if it had to do with protein intake... but for me, it really didn't. So, I try to eat "smart" thru the day.... Instead of something that has 250 calories and a million carbs, I try to pick something that has few calories and carbs...(like fresh cucumber from my garden)... or whatever... AND I try to really think about my eating and make sure it is not "head hunger" that I'm feeling.... and it is not "stress eating".... the big danger for me is to eat without thinking about it.... that's my big fear....

All I can do is speak from personal experience…. This happened to me as
well and seems to be normal… every now and then, for no apparent reason, I
am “hungrier” during the day…. I put “hungrier” in quotes… because it
still doesn’t compare to the HUNGER I used to have before surgery….. but
on those days, I find myself wanting to eat more frequently. When that
happens I too wondered if it had to do with protein intake… but for me, it
really didn’t. So, I try to eat “smart” thru the day…. Instead of
something that has 250 calories and a million carbs, I try to pick something
that has few calories and carbs…(like fresh cucumber from my garden)… or

not “head hunger” that I’m feeling…. and it is not “stress eating”…. the
big danger for me is to eat without thinking about it…. that’s my big

The only increase I've noticed is that most days I put something in 5 times but occasionally only 3 or 4 times. I understand it is normal for our appetites to pick up. Rev.
