I echo the above - it’s likely a stall. As for not for not being able to eat all your advised portion, that’s okay & something we’ve all experienced at times. At the moment you’re still healing & early out so it’s not unusual to not feel hungry, not interested in eating, not wanting to eat all your serve, or to become temporarily sensitive to certain tastes, textures or smells which can effect what or how much you eat. The bigger concern would be if you were eating more than your portion. As long as your meeting or being close to your Protein goal you’ll be okay. You’ll find it all gets easier as you progress.

As for drinking, is it the taste or texture of what you’re drinking that upsets you? Or do you have discomfort on swallowing? Many of us found warm drinks easier to drink initially - more soothing than cold drinks. I found plain Water almost too heavy to drink at first. Try varying what you drink throughout the day. Try a flavoured water (or just add a little lemon or lime juice), Protein water, green or herbal tea, yoghurt drinks (make your own by adding milk to your preferred yoghurt), etc. I used to open bottles of sparkling water & let them go flat & drink them too. And ensure you are sipping slowly enough for you.

At 3.75yrs I still have leftovers in my fridge from meals I couldn’t finish a few times a week. Last night I had the leftover vegetables & a lamb cutlet I didn’t eat from the night before. Just added another cutlet so I met my goals.

Hi, I would like to know if it's Ok that I've been on my same weight for the past 4 days. I lost 21lbs (I was Oped with 239), yet I'm stuck. In fact, my food portions (as assigned by the nutricionist) sometimes are way too much and I can't eat it completely. Ive had some issues with my liquids (since they don't feel good when I take them). What should I do? Is it ok? Should I exercise since now? Help please

I had my op on dec 27th. Ive been on a liquid diet (water, Protein Shakes, snapple and gatorade and soup). But im pretty concerned not identifying if im hungry or just anxious? Its too fast, i feel, for me.to be wondering thus. Right?
