I'm Not Hungry, I Don't Want To Eat



Recommended Posts

I am feeling something and can't quite put my finger on it. As I sit here eating my veggie burger I all-of-a-sudden did not feel like eating (it is still on my plate), I just wanted to stop :unsure::huh: ... and I know I am suppose to get in at least 60 grams of Protein and I am barely half way there. What's going on?

Morning Star Farms is a fave of mine not to mention it is NOT CHEAP.

Any thoughts? Anyone else gone/going thru this? :huh:

Yup- don't buy anything in large amounts, even if you used to like it a lot pre-op.

I retained a lot of my tastes, but some folks completely lose any desire for things that they used to like.

Keep in mind that most folks can't get to 60 grams by eating food, it often takes a supplement to get there - pick a Protein drink you like, or add the powder to other things you make to increase your numbers.

Your primary concerns should be pretty much like this:

#1 - Water

#2 - Exercise

#3 - Protein

#2 & #3 can be interchangeable, and shouldn't be completely static like I'm suggesting - you just have to figure out where your new balance is and work with it.

Thank you.

That is something to think about and work on.

I get in the water...do a lot of walking (can't afford the price of a gym - yet), and as for the protein.... working on it. :mellow::)

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
