Not hungry

Am I the only one who is having a hard time getting in protein, water etc.? I just have no desire to eat!! No matter how hard I try I just feel full all day long.

enjoy it while it lasts - hunger comes back for the vast majority of us, and then it gets a lot more challenging to stick to the plan. My hunger came back after about five months. It varies - anywhere from a couple of months up to a year or so out. There are a few lucky souls whose hunger never comes back, but for most of us, it eventually does...

Me, too, but I have a protein shake at regular mealtimes even though I don't feel hunger. Got to hit my protein goals.

I'm not hungry per se, but I'm so conditioned to eat when my family eats that I do it out of habit (albeit teeny amounts in comparison). If I were home alone all day I could see myself easily forgetting lunch... which is hilarious to me.

Consider yourself lucky as hell, I came out of surgery hungry!!! I had surgery on 5/13 and on 5/20 was allowed to begin soft foods and let me tell you there is definitely restriction on how much I can eat but I am eating 5 times a day and I am always hungry not so much in the mornings but moving throughout the day definitely hungry but I am walking 3 to 4 miles per day so doctor said normal due to exercising.. So, enjoy your lack or hunger as long as you are not doing harm to yourself. Good luck and keep us posted..

I am seldom hungry, and the fact I have frequent emesis does not make me enthusiastic to eat. My morning wake-me-up-gotta put something in there breakfast? One scoop protein powder, some frozen fruit medley from Wal-Mart, no melon there---I LOATH MELON Almond milk to cover and whirled,i n my Nutribullet. Comes out a cross between milk shake and soft- serve ice cream in consistency. Figure I will eat a little now, put the pour-lid on, refrigerate the rest for later. Even if it melts down liquid that's still pretty Okay. ???
