No Appitite Since I Made The Wls Commitment



Recommended Posts

Have had no appetite, have been nauseated and an all around nervous mess since I committed to this surgery. Is it just me? Not having the surgery til Nov 5th. Hope I don't feel like this the whole time! I am looking at foods that I know I should not ever eat again and I'm OK with it. Most of the foods I shouldn't eat make me feel sick anyway. I am not so nervous about having to permanently change my ways. More nervous that I am going alone and that I have committed. Anyone else going to be having surgery with Dr Garcia around Nov 5th? And am I the only one freaking out that "It's actually happening"?

No, I found that too. Some stuff I would eat just because it's there -- like at parties and stuff -- is really unappealing to me now. I feel like I am soooo tired of eating and feeling bad about it, it's just easier not to.

The trouble is when something tastes GOOD, I can't stop. And mentally, since I didn't eat all the other stuff, I justify eating more+... so I wasn't losing weight.

Good morning and I think it is normally to have all of the emotions you are having. I will have my surgery on September 10th and I have all sorts of emotions but what helps me is I know that I am doing what is right for me. More than that I have peace about the decision I have made to have the WLS... I started my pre-op diet on yesterday and surprisingly I was not hungry... I am always hungry... I just know that this is going to be the best thing I have done and Believe me you are not the only one...

Sending positive energy your way and Best regards on your upcoming surgery!!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
