Had my surgery on the 17th and am still not hungry... I am trying to drink my protein shakes, but they don't even taste good anymore. I am drinking crystal light and trying broth but I'm just not hungry and feel I'm force feeding myself... What can I do?

Force yourself to get some protien in every day. If you don't you will feel like crap! Trust me, been there done that. Lol. Your not going to get anywhere near what you did before surgery but that's ok. Just make yourself get some protien in. And of course get as much liquids in as possible. Don't stress out about it, your hunger will return.

You are only second day post op!!!! Do not worry about anything right now except healing and fluids. You will most likely not feel hungry for another week. It will all come together soon. Be patient.

I had my surgery on the 18th and I am feeling exactly the same. Only got 2 protein shakes in and drinking the crystal light too. I am relying on my vitamins heavily right now.

Two protein shakes that early on is wonderful in my book!

I wax also banded on the 17th. So far I've had 1/4 cup of jello, a cup of beef broth, a few sips of a protein shake and water. I as well have no appetite. I wouldn't worry too much from what I've read/heard its normal. Plus it's much easier to do a liquid diet when ur not hungry
