Does (Did) Anyone Else Feel This Way?

I was sleeved on 10/29 and I have literaly had NOTHING to eat since before my surgery. I have no appetite, no cravings and no desire to eat. I have tried the yogurt the broth the soups all a no go. One spoon and I'm done! I keep myself hydrated with water and protein but I am not getting in the desired amount. Is this normal?

    I didn't have an appetite for about 2 weeks after I was sleeved. I didn't know when I was hungry or when I was full. I asked my doc & he said it was normal.

It has only been a couple of weeks and your stomach was traumatized. If you are getting in enough fluids and protein (via protein shakes?) then just count your blessings :-) You will eventually be able to eat more than a spoonful. No problem.

Totally normal!!!! I concur with Spatters! :)

Thanks ladies! I just don't want to starve my body. So far the eggs have gone down good. At what week were you able to eat anything without the pain of it hitting your stomach?

I was sleeved on 10/30/12 and I am feeling the same way. No energy and feeling like sh*t. I can get 2-3 teaspoon of food but am not hungry and my stomach feels like it can not hold 1sip more! I've made a appt with my regular doctor for tomorrow just to make sure things are going right.

I feel your pain. My doctor gave me a B12 shot, so far I am good in the energy department. But just yesterday the nausea kicked in big time! So that is making not want ANYTHING Water, Protein, Vitamins included...WHEN DOES IT STOP! :,(

I was also sleeved on the 29th of october. I was on protein drinks from 10/15 - 11/15. I have been on mushie foods (yougart, eggs, cheese, refried beans, canned tuna, chicken, salmon and string cheese and sliced cheese. I feel your pain. Initially when I began to introduce my belly to food it was unhappy. My stomach griped and had issues. Today is my 5th day on mushie foods and my stomach is ok, but when you eat to much, to fast it will let you know. I also started my vitamins when I started. While on protein drinks I felt the same way. Once you get on food it will be better, but know this there is a new sheriff in town called your new belly. lol U are doing fine.

Thanks Chris54. I noticed that when I ate the egg this morning it went down well because it took me 35 minutes to eat it! I may take a chance and venture to a chicken salad, or fish tonight. But if I feel the pain I am done! Lol!
