The one thing I always got excited about seems to becoming an after thought and I'm not sure this is healthy. I feel like I force myself to eat. I do eat, don't get me wrong, but the enjoyment is gone. I don't get excited when I advance in phases and am able to eat more things as I though I would. I barely eat the required amount that my Dr. set between 500 and 800 calories per day. Im around the the lower end of that spectrum. I think I feel this way because food is what made me fat and I'm feeling resentment towards it. I know this sounds crazy as hell..... Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?

@@Smal2015 If anyone bashes you....let me know who....lol! Jj I didn't have a pre op diet....just liquids 24 hrs before surgery. I actually gained 33 lbs from the time I got my sugary date in November till my surgery on March 5th. Just keep on truckin!

I eat the same few things every day and you will also find a few things that you enjoy, satisfy your nutrition requirements, and make you feel satisfied. And once you find that balance, food logging will be like second nature only because you will always know exactly what you eat everyday

Haha......Oh geeze! Always one in the crowd!

Try Adkins protein shakes.... 15g of protein 1g sugar 160 calories

And your not going to. Yogurt is made with milk and milk has sugar.....can't get around that

I always told myself that I wasn't going to die fat!! And now I'm not!! You are just as much of a health risk being obese as you are getting surgery.

I'm 14 days out and I get weak as well.... I did walk a mile today and my legs are extremely sore. Are you eating enough??

With all of the saints on this thread, let me be the first to say I was eating high octane crap up until 2 days before surgery, liquids the day before and I have had zero issues

Best thing if all you want is protein is Isopure. It's sold at GNC. 20oz drink has 40g of protein, 0 sugar, 0 carbs and 160 calories. They have 5 or 6 different flavors..... It's like gatorade

Adkins shakes are the best!! 15g of protein and only 150 cal and 2 carbs.

And a cup of V8 is only 50 calories

I am allow to drink V8 starting today and I am 2 weeks post op and in the full liquid phase

I have been feeling the same way. Food has been the center of my life for as long as I can remember and it's very hard redirecting myself away from eating and focusing on other activities

I have read about so many problems ppl are having and I feel weird that I haven't had any issues at all. I have lost over 30 and I'm only 2 weeks post op. I'm not really ever hungry and I find myself eating out of boredom. At what point does the quick weight loss stop?
