Hello all,
I am 6 months post op this week, and I have a bit of a problem. I am at the green zone for sure, and I rarely have an appetite. I have zero interest in food, and I can easily go 5+ hours before getting physically hungry, which means I eat Breakfast a few hours after getting up (I'm kinda tight in the morning) but then I don't feel like eating until supper time.
I have no problem eating most things (except breads that are untoasted) so I know I'm not over-restricted according to the red/yellow/green chart.
Some times, even when I am physically hungry, I have no interest in food, and I either have to force myself to eat something, or I just don't eat. When I eat, it's always under a cup of food.
I try to focus on starting with Protein an getting in veggies and whole grains, but I'm starting to wonder if I'm missing out on some important nutrients and such. I'm probably eating only 500-800 calories max most days.
So, am I alright, or is this something I should talk to my doctor about? Is this what the green zone is about?
Thanks guys! All replies and opinions are welcome
