Head Hunger

[lilypersian]

Hi everyone,
Don't want to seem dull but i've seen lots of people mention 'head hunger' in their posts. I've got a 10ml band, with 5.2ml in. I'm due for my second fill any time now. After my first fill, I felt a lot of restriction but I feel like its wearing off! I definately cant eat as much as before my band, but i've noticed i'm feeling hungry every 2 hours. I dont think its head hunger as my stomach is actually rumbling! Is this normal as I dont understand the head hunger thing
Thank you
xx

Head hunger is where we lust after something to eat and we don't actually need it. You know really fancying a bar of chocolate but knowing full well for me that would be a disaster. Not sure how things are for banders, but that's head hunger for me.

Hi Lyzzyanne,
I had an appointment with my dietician today and she told me the same thing, so thank you for your reply.

I had times with my band I would be fine for ages then instantly I was starving and my belly was rumbling and if I didn't get something I would start feeling dizzy. That's gone now thank god xx
