I just had my surgery on the 16th of Jan. It took me 8 months to lose my 10 lbs before surgery, and 8 lbs on my 2week liquid. I was wondering if anyone else is having any problems not wanting to eat?!?!? I never thought I would be fighting to finish 1 protein shake in an entire day!!! I feel like I am drinking all day and and not even at 30oz water and 8oz protein. Does anybody have any ideas??? or the same struggles??

Hi and congrats! I had my surgery on 12/3/13 and till this day I still struggle to eat. Even though it's not a good thing but sometimes with life begins so busy I forget to eat sometimes. Its hard but I found that My fitness Pal helps me with reminder and log everything. If you can't finish it don't save it and start again in 1 a hour. I've learned to listen to your body when it tells you no more than it's no more.

Well your surgery is still fresh. My doc kept me on clear liquids first 10 days post op. If you puke early you can get a leak so don't push. Water is he only importance right now for you. I am 14 days post op and he added cream soup 4 days ago. In 4 days I have tried it twice. Our taste and want have changed but enjoy it because we will not feel like this forever and should take advantage of the rapid weight loss

I had my surgery on Dec 30th and still unable to get all the protein and liquids in. Sounds like a common thing.
