  1. Hysterectomy in 2016 here. I had surgery on July 12, 2018, and I am almost at my goal weight of 150 pounds.
  2. I was perfectly happy with my new appetite. I didn’t seek food out like I had before and that is wonderful. I am also thankful that I don’t have intense hunger like my sister in law. (Bypass patient) But gagging through food and only urinating once a day is a bit scary to me. I got the Isopure drinks my doc told me to get. This stuff is absolutely awful but I’ll drink it to help me over this hump.
  3. I just spoke with my surgeon. She believes its the beginning of protein malnutrition. If I don't get my protein and water consumption up by Thursday they will be putting in a feeding tube. They suggested Isopure water to help me over the hump. I do not want a feeding tube.
  4. Hi All, I am almost 6 weeks out from my sleeve surgery and I have a call into my surgeon. From the moment I came home from the hospital, my appetite has steadily diminished. Last week I completely lost my appetite. I have to make myself eat and I usually gag it down. I can barely look at protein drinks and when I try to use them I cannot finish them. I am only meeting about half of my fluid requirement and obviously not meeting my protein goals either. I guess I'm just wondering if this has happened to anyone else. I certainly didn't mind a diminished appetite but the aversion to food is freaking me out a bit. I am hoping my surgeon will be able to shed some light on the subject but I thought I would bring it up here.
  5. I am a month out from being sleeved and my stomach makes the strangest bubbling noises. I’m used to it now but it started immediately.
