Rthomas24179 got a reaction from Losingit2018 in 2 months after surgery still can’t eat much
So I’m excited to say I ate 3 grilled shrimp and a few green Beans and was in total heave. At least I made a good choice in my food selection.

I have tried to eat a few bites of tuna in the pouch. I did make some taco Soup. I ate some the first few days then I didn’t want it. Sometimes I get a little hungry. I’m still doing shakes and the sugar free popsicles. They are heaven when you can eat lol. They told me at Christmas I could eat a little to enjoy the day. I did have a little ham some Beans I did fine. I only ate a few bites. Took some home and a few days later couldn’t eat it. I saw where someone was eating hummus so I bought some to try. Believe me I’m not rushing anything. My sister had this done in 2004. She gained a little back and said she can eat what she wants just in smaller portions. She said she still can’t process any sugar. Which is a good thing.
thanks for everyone’s comments. It helps to have other people to talk to while going through the process. I started out at 302 in June 2019, surgery 11/4. Im down to 244 I’ve lost about 33 since surgery. My dr said my goal is 10 lbs a month and I’m reaching that goal. Going to sign up to go back to the gym. I can’t wait.

This is the honeymoon period where you don't have much of an appetite. Make the most of it and enjoy it while you can! My appetite is starting to come back, and I wish it wasn't!😁

That's a GOOD problem to have. You don't want to be hungry, that's why you had the surgery in the first place, to get rid of your hunger hormone. Drinking Protein Shakes will work just fine. Don't rush the process. You'll be grateful later.

I'll be 10 weeks Monday and I'm still mostly on shakes. 2 or 3 a day most days

Absolutely normal. I was only eating/drinking 500 cal/day at 2 months. You are still healing, and it is a very difficult transition time. Some days you can eat certain foods, and other days the same foods are just intolerable. Work on eating slowly, and listening to your body. You don't have to force anything at this point. Just get your Protein, fluids, and Vitamins down and you will be fine.
