I am 1 month post op and I am so unhappy .. I hate having to eat.. it's a chore.. I never get my protein in or my water intake.. let alone my vitamins... Everyday I say this is a new day try.. but I always feel full ..when I do eat .. I feel blah.. no matter what I eat.. I try to follow my plan to the T.. and I've only lost 18 lbs since surgery day.. I don't have energy ever.. I started walking more.. nothing crazy about a mile a day.. I knew this was going to be hard but I am on such a funk.. idk how to get myself out!!! HELP!!!

I am 4 days out and today started having what I believe are gas pains. They come about every 3 minutes then pass right across the top of my stomach so I'm a little worried. I can't lay on my side or stomach which is what I'd normally do so anyone have suggestions? Is this normal?? Please help

I just had my hysterectomy and the gas pain was the worst. Get up to walk as much as you can and get gas x strips. They were a lifesaver.

Having the same problem and it's been a month for me. I haven't been happy either. On top I'm only losing 1lb a week.

Eating too few calories can prevent weight loss. I am in the same boat but just congratulate myself when no have a good day and try to remember this is a learning curve. Crying also helps Lol

I know this is What I signed up for and that things will get better with time but I'm so sick ALL the time. I can't even think about getting in protein cause the thought of protein makes me sick. Getting in fluid is a struggle specially since plain water makes me vomit. Can't wait till I start to feel normal again.

try nectar flavorless in water with crystal light. There's barely any taste, maybe a slight scent of the powder but that may help from the sweet shakes

yes. Gas strips. Two at a time, one after another and it helps. Burp burp burp. I started feeling them in my shoulder. Took a good three days for them to work them all out. Hang in there!

Day 16 and I'm just over it !! I just want to be able to go out with my family for Mother's Day tomorrow. I know it's not true but right now I feel like I will never be "normal" again. I can't even think about food, I kind of hate everything This is my 3rd surgery and by far the hardest !!

I hear ya. I just wanted to take my mom.put to my fave food places and couldn't and felt so defeated but that's how I got here, place so much emphasis on food. We will eat again...soon Lol n
