I was sleeved the same day as you, It will get better some people just heal differently. I have an appetite and today I had a 11oz EAS chocolate shake, like nothing? It had 30 g of Protein, maybe you just don't have tastebuds for what your actually trying to getting in.

I had issues with anything cold and did WAY better with warm (not hot) liquids like broth and strained Soups. I put them in a coffee mug to keep them warm.

I also starting using 1/2 Water and 1/2 milk for my shakes instead if all milk. It made them thinner and easier to drink.

You'll feel better soon!!

I'm certainly no expert (only 16 days out!), but days 5-9 sucked eggs for me, mentally and physically!

I also put creamed Soups in the blender with some broth to thin them and that tasted good to me. It was warm and filling. And Soup is comforting to me.

Hang in there. Theist important thing right now is to get in as much fluids as possible. You'll feel like POO if you get dehydrated!

Don't be too hard on yourself. Hugs!

That is so funny...I am better with cold...it just goes to show how many people are so different with their healing...but just it does get better...I am 2 weeks postop...love my sleeve already...I am never hungry and if I didn't have to eat I probably wouldn't...lol...right afterwards...I thought I was going to starve to death...

Many blessings to you! Hang in there

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
