4 days post op and struggling to eat/drink anything



Recommended Posts

Hi I had my Gastric Bypass on Thursday morning, today is Sunday afternoon and I have no appetite whatsoever and am struggling to drink anything and shakes, smoothies and yoghurts I just cannot get down me, any suggestions? Im drinking as much milk as I can for the Protein content but even thats a struggle

Also I'm unsure exactly how much I should be consuming a day, my diet sheet says to try yoghurts, custards etc but whats the size portion that I should be consuming?

Thanks

Sizes don't matter while you're recovering. Just be sure to get in as much Protein Shakes as possible (I use the GNC Premade chocolate shakes) and get in all the Water, stay hydrated, sip, sip, sip all day long.

You're only few days post op should be on liquids only like Water. Protein Shakes. Etc might need to water the shakes down more

      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! 😞
