Not hungry...

Since about a week or two ago, I've become less hungry. Problem is,, I am supposed to get 80-100 grams of protein per day. That itself is a challenge to begon with but without bein hungry even worse. By around dinnertime I have an appetite so I can have dinner. I have been trying to make myself eat. Sometimes I've skipped breakfast. I have a protein shake to replace a meal. I've only Bern having one shake a day. I don't know, maybe I'll try two.

Anyone have any ideas or have this problem? I'd appreciate the feedback. :)

Thanks, Nienie. That's what I'll try to do. I've been losing my hair a lot, luckily I have a lot so it's not too noticeable. I had a stall but now I started to lose quickly again. My doctors prefer my weight loss to slow down though. I am happy because I'm getting close to my goal.

Yes, I really need to try to get the protein in.

Thanks, again. :)

Up that protein, have high protein Snacks, string cheese, greek yogurt, meat. Make sure you are getting all your fluids in and take all your Vitamins. I believe that you either lose hair or you don't and even when doing everything you are suppose to be doing it can happen.

Hi I'm just jumping in on u guys.. I'm losing my hair really bad and fast. I know I'm not getting enough protein . The problem is that I was a huge sweet junky before I had surgery now I hate everything sweet!!! I need help to find ways to get enough protein now. If u know anything that would be great.. Thank u so much...

the only thing I found tolerable is putting a scoop of protein powder in my coffee. Yes I drink one cup of coffee a day but I am also 14 months out. I find it is the only way to get those important grams in first thing in the morning. I dont like the consistancy the powder makes yogurt or puddings. It is so important to get that protein in. Not only for our hair but for the bodies vital organs and muscle.

Hey there- I have the same problem most of the time. Everything is chocolatey this and Carmely that when it comes to protein stuff! To help up my protein I drink Isopure premixed drinks - they're like Gatorade, but yes, they have an aftertaste. :/ most days I can get a half of one down just fine- 20g right there. Also, for protein I eat lunch meat when I can (lean things, obviously).

I'm scared to try Isopure because of the aftertaste. I'll never know if I don't try :) I heard it comes in Grape Flavor!

Lots if nasty ones. Burnt rubber and bottled sadness

I drink the grape one. I don't think it's that bad!

Thanks Abby. I'm going to try.

The hospital I was in had Isopure. I was able to drink the grape. The Fruit punch was disgusting. I have a BLue raspberry still in my fridge that I am scared to open. The aftertaste was not pleasant. Leaves a fuzzy feeling in my mouth. Just my opinion. :wacko:
