I read your blog post about being 4 days post op and feeling hungry and sad. I hope you are feeling better now. I have been a little sporadic on here lately due to a busy life. I can tell you that for me the heartburn mimicked hunger pangs. Things will continue to get better so hang in there. I needed to take antacids (Prilosec) for the first few months. The sleeve works. Trust the process. Don't get frustrated. And sometimes when your weight stalls your body is still changing and shrinking. Welcome to the forum.
