I'm HUNGRY!!! I feel like my 3 meals a day isn't enough! Is it real hunger or head hunger???

I was pretty nauseated, exhausted and had diahrea for the past week. On Tuesday I called the Dr. office and talked to the nurse. They prescribed something for the nausea. They had me take some Immodium AD for the loose bowels and they told me to drink V8 to get potassium to get my electrolytes up. Today is the first day since surgery that I have felt decent.

BUT...I don't feel SATISFIED when I eat. I get hungry every few hours but I don't know if it's real or all in my head! I'm worried that there is something wrong with my pouch - maybe when I was dry heaving so hard in the hospital after surgery I blew out a stitch or staple or something in my pouch. I'll have to ask at my 2 week follow up next week.
