Heres my story in a nutshell: I had gastric Bypass in 2009 I was 320 I got down to 218 beginning of 2011. May of 2011 I was 233 and found out I was pregnant. Got up to 249 during pregnancy son was a premie. Was pumping milk and got down to 239 my metabolism has sped up so I was eating like crazy and over a 3wk period I had got up to 255 
So Now I go to the Bariatri Clinic and I get the b12 shot and also on Tenuate appetie suppressant. I am on a 1300 calorie diet and slim fast 2 shakes a day. So I am doing a lot. as of today I have lost 5.2lbs since last wednesday. I work 3-5 times a day sometimes twice doing all cardio 20-50 mins.
anyway at night time after I have done all my calories and Im off of work I am STARVING LIKE I HAVENT ATE IN YEARS... Does anyone else experience this what do you suggest I can do?
Please Help!
and also looking for friends to help motivate each other so please add me

how old is your baby now and are you still expressing/nursing? Make sure you get the extra calories for that into you (500/day for full-time nursing!). And make sure you speak to your doctor too about this, not sure about medication you're taking, but if you are nursing, 1300 calories a day aren't enough to sustain you. That might be why you're hungry. Also, make sure you drink plenty of water.
If you're not nursing anymore.. try to make sure you drink plenty of water during the day. I sometimes feel hungry at night, have a big glass of water and that's that. My 'hungry' and 'thirsty' signals seem to be the same!
Hope you find your solution, best of luck!!0
