I was sleeved on October 11th and since then, I hate eating. The thought of a meal make me want to cry. Even the thought of chewing make me want to puke. I have no desire for food. Does anybody else feel this way.

Yes, but it will get better. Your tummy is still healing at 6 weeks. At this time you should be drinking most of your calories (protien shakes)and eating very soft foods like Soups and wendy's chili (my lifesaver).

shakes now upset my stomach. I wish i liked yogurt or cottage cheese but I can't eat either of them. I tried every brand and flavor.

I haven't felt that way except in relation to not feeling hungry and when that happens I turn to using Unjury chicken broth: 100 calories 21g Protein. It is gentle on the tummy and I can just carry it around in a mug like a cup of coffee and sip, to get liquid and protien and the same time.

Which flavors/brands? I didn't like one brand but love the vanilla & the Key Lime flavors by Okios (a Dannon brand)

I had similar feelings for my first 4 - 5 weeks but it gradually went away. I had no interest in food and didn't think that I ever would again.

I can't get past the smell of the yogurt. It all smells really bad to me. Everyday I Hope that today is the day I'll be able to eat without forcing it. I'm hoping that day will be tomorrow! :)

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
