Gastric bypass 6 years ago, and now I get hungry?

I had gastric bypass surgery in 2001 (6 years ago) and it was a huge success. But lately when I eat (still small portions), I get hungry about and hour or two later. I know the stomach stretches after several years after the surgery, but this is starting to annoy me, and I’ve gained weight.

Should I go back to the surgeon who performed it, or tell my personal doctor?
This hungry condition just started within the past 6 months. I’m worried that the band the doctor added at the top of my stomach might have broken. Any other Gastric Bypass Patients (having it done 6 years ago) experience anything like this?

At some point you have to take responsibility for what goes in your mouth.
Bypass is considered a drastic, almost emergency procedure for someone in a life threatening situation. It bought you time to make the attitude and lifestyle changes necessary to maintain a healthy weight.
Its time to cowboy up.
