    Did you have your ovaries out as well? I am having a hysterectomy on Jan 5, so while I haven't gone through this yet, I know that when the docs were playing with my meds that also messed with my hormones I had a similar issue. I was constantly hungry, and couldn't control myself. I had gained about 15lbs during a 5 month time frame. After my hormones balanced themselves out I managed to get back on track and I am now at my lowest weight in over 16 years. Good luck and I give yourself time to balance out.

    Did the doctor give you medications with crummy side effects?
