Stephanie,
When I was using the PEG I had absolutly no desire for anything other than one morning when I wanted some strong coffee. As soon as the thing came out, I had the appetite of a 17 yr old boy. I ate and ate. I even began taking a lot of sweets which I normally avoid because I am hypoglycemic. I continued to loose weight very slowly for a long time (about a year).
