I'm having difficulty eating enough because I have no appetite at all!! I'm only getting 250-600 calories a day and have had so much gas pan! I've been walking around a lot and taking gas-x strips and taking my pain meds as needed. How are people getting in their calories with no appetite?

The most important thing right now is stay hydrated. Sip Water all day long, the appetite will come back (with a vengeance). You are still healing so don't worry about calories or weight loss. Sip your liquids and you'll do fine.

Good luck.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
