I Feel Good But I Barely Eat

It's me again.... I went to get the endoscopy done Friday. They open my stomach a little which was closed. First two days I can jump ropes Lolz.. Felt great.

Now I'm going reverse.... I'm vomiting & I'm not really eating.

Strange thing is I feel good. I can live on Water & not eating. The little I eat mash potatoes sunflower seeds salmon fish makes me feel good & happy. I'm not in a bad mood or anything.

Will I be like this forever? The love for food is gone. Yes I will tell my surgeon all this I'm feeling.

I heard it is the honeymoon phase. Our nerves are cut in the surgery when they come back we will feel hunger again. I would make sure your getting your protein and liquids in daily. As much as you can in the beginning but as time goes on it is a must I have been told. Good luck!

I think the voimiting is a problem. Constant voimiting can cause a lot of internal damage and u don't want to end up anoxeric. Im not voimiting but I had a hard time eating and my nutrition told me to find whatever I can to stay down and get calories in. Can u do Soups? Fruit? Or crackers? I stick to super soft stuff for right now.

I'm losing weight I'm now 160 but my stomach is slimming. My legs aren't getting smaller. I'm gonna tell my surgeon all that.

Sounds like water retention... Try to stay off your feet for a while if u can... Are the sunflower seeds salted?? That could make you retain water.

Sorry you are feeling bad. I'm glad they opened you up a bit. Please try and get your portein in each day it is so important. Please tell your doc about your legs. Unfotunately you cannot live on water alone.. you need to get nutrition. I hope you feel better !!!
