I was sleeved on July 24th. At first I was eating an drinking a lot trying to get in my recommended amounts but now at almost 6 weeks out I have completely lost my appetite. I dnt want to eat. Maybe once or twice a day is all because usually I forget to. (I'm still drinking though). Is it possible for my stomach to shrink even more because I'm eating so little? Because when I do eat it seems like it takes less to fill me up. I used to be able to take 4 or 5 bites and I started to feel it. Now it's like 3 or 4 bites. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?

I've noticed the same disinterest in eating. I don't like the full feeling anymore, it doesn't sedate me like it used to. But I'm afraid of losing my hair so I still try to eat enough to get my nourishment. As far as being able to eat less I think I just got less interested in eating more than I need.

Well guys I ended my stall yesterday morning when I went down .4 lbs. And today I got on the scale and dropped about 4 lbs!!!! Turns out I was eating to few calories again. This is my second stall and it seems like when I stall it is because I am not eating enough calories and spreading my meals too far apart. I am now at 269.4!!! A total loss of 38 lbs!!!!!!

what amount of cal should i be eating im five weeks out ????
what amount of cal should i be eating im five weeks out ????

I am at about 800 calories and my nutritionist at right about 5 1/2 weeks out.

NSV today! I went to the lane Bryant Labor Day sale today. Before surgery I was wearing a 26/28. I tried in 22/24 today and they were too big- by A LOT!! I bought 18/20 and they fit perfect!!! So excited!!!

I had my surgery July 2 down 58 Pounds

That's great, does that include any pre-surgery weight loss, or is that all since surgery?

Hi, Surgery 7/30

Beginning Weight 224

Pre-op 215

Current 198

I'm pleased with the results so far but I wish I could comfortably eat something besides yogurt and the Protein drinks. I tried some fish tonight, tilapia, ate about 2 oz. It feels like the whole portion is sitting in my throat. I'm pretty miserable, really. I'm exhausted all the time and am totally constipated. And I feel like I need an antacid every three hours, when the prescription is for every 12 hours. Sigh. I am praying to feel remotely normal soon. I have so much to do and really, all I want to do is lay around. I haven't left the house in two days for more than 20 minutes. Sorry to complain, I know this is temporary. (God, I hope so!)

I am just starting to feel energized. Once I dealt with the constipation I am feeling way better.
