3 months post op help



Recommended Posts

Hello friends

I am now three months post op and down 50 pounds since my surgery. My trouble is lately I have no desire to eat or drink anything it is a struggle daily to get in Protein and fluids. This only started happening in the last week.

Any suggestions as to why or what I can do to break through this funk I am in? I know I need to eat and drink more but I just don't feel like it

Work up an appetite with exercise. I am always wanting a good Protein based meal after a good workout.

Same problem here... I have *no* appetite ever since my surgery and I am 3 months out as well. I do like TammyDTM suggested & exercise then easy a high Protein meal. I also find if my drinks are ice, ice cold it is easier for me to get them down. I fill 2 Water bottles with SF flavored water & one Protein Drink the night before. Stick them in the fridge & they are cold for the next day. I buy Quest Protein Bars & some protein 'chips' and sometimes these are my meal. They are really small portions & help me reach my protein goal for the day.

You may be in a rut with your meal choices. Trying different spices or some new recipes. Wake up your taste buds with variety, that works for me. Good luck!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
