I was sleeved 9/26/17, I am starting to slowly eat solid food, but it seems so intimidating I look at my food and instantly don’t want to eat it

I’m hardly hungry but I eat for nutrition only, anyone having this feeling?

Normal. I wouldnt say intimmated but I'm not that motivated by food, not hungry but I eat because I need the nourishment - not fond of passing out. What are you trying to eat?

I had bypass October 10. I feel same way, it is a struggle to feel like eating and making myself. I at least get the shakes down for 60 grams of protein but I am sick of those! I honestly believe I must not be taking in enough calories b/c after four weeks from surgery, I am only down the 20 lbs and 11 pre surgery. Definitely has stalled. I assume I need to eat more food for calories?

Wish I had that problem. I'm 3 days post-op and am hungry. :/

Like many have said: Pre surgery we used to live to eat. Post surgery we now eat to live.

I find no joy in food anymore because I dont feel hungry. I eat to get my basic nutrients and to be healthier.

I think for me I get hungry, but eating food is so cumbersome now, especially solids that it turns me off from wanting to eat. I'd rather not eat. But I eat for sustenance. My relationship with food has shifted. I used to love the taste of foods and enjoy eating so much that I would be sooo stuffed. But now, I lose interest after one or two bites. The first bite of food is amazing, but by the third or fourth bite, I am grossed out. I am not complaining though. Just surprised. That most foods that I used to love taste blah to me or I am turned off by. Fried chicken, peanut butter, avocado, bacon, these are all foods I loved. Can't be bothered by them now.
