Almost 3 Weeks Out, Things Aren't Great.

[blossom12 11]

I'm almost three weeks out and I am still not hungry. At all. At first I was happy about that, but now I'm miserable. I hate having to force myself to eat and drink. If I wanted to I could probably go days without eating or drinking anything with no problem, but I know that's not good so obviously I force myself to stay hydrated and fed. It's just annoying and it's starting to piss me off. Anyone else going through this?

You should be having a better time shortly. I remember wondering when I went to my 2 week post op visit and they were saying that I would work up to 1500 calories I thought no way. Keep up on your fluids and keep up on your Protein and keep up on your Vitamins. If you fall a little short on protein don't sweat it. It does get easier, I promise.

I'm just over 3 weeks out and Popsicles are the easiest and best thing for me haha Fluid but no Protein.

So I use them as reward, get my Protein in in, get a Popsicle..

Nut said during the week she wanted me giving up shakes and just having food but since 3 bites is still my limit, there's no way, she said 2 shakes 1 meal but have food as Snacks to get my levels up.

It is nauseating to eat when u don't want to.

I'm eight weeks out and I have no appetite. I have alarms set on my phone to tell me when it's time to eat. I had heard some people never get there appetite back.

I'm 11 days out and I'm starting to feel hungry again. I can't eat much in one sitting, but I do get hungry. Is this abnormal?

I get hungry too so I don't think it's abnormal. The good thing is that 3oz and I'm full.

I'm 5 weeks out and still am not getting hungry either. Instead of hunger, I get this weird almost burning feeling when my stomach is completely empty. It can usually be calmed with a Tums and a few sips of Water, but I know I need some nutrients in there too. It's so strange to me to be so aware of when my stomach is full and empty...that's something new I'm going to have to learn to figure out.
