    Here's a tidbit of information and it's not well known among newbies. Heartburn can feel just like hunger. In the beginning I panicked because I was always starving. Then someone shared this with me and told me to take prilosec. I did and POOF, the hunger wasnt there anymore. It was freakin heartburn!! I learned to tell the difference and everything got better. I still get this feeling sometimes and eat a gas x. Then, sometimes it was heartburn it goes away. Other times it really is hunger so I have a little something. Just try some prilosec next time and see if it helps.
    I hope this information helps. Good luck!



    You don’t have to be perfect. You just need to be better.
