Hi everyone!

So I'm not sure whats going on but for the past few weeks I haven't been hungry. Some would say that's great because its preventing me from over eating but the reality is I've been under eating. I've lost my appetite completely and I've been getting in 200-350 calories a day. I'm not sure what to do at this point. I'll have a few bites of my food then I'm done for the day and I don't want anything else. Yesterday and Sunday I had to force myself to eat something even though I really didn't want to and if I didn't force myself, I would have ended the day with 224 calories and 15 g of protein. I've been trying to eat foods higher in calories so that my macros are higher but so far that's my only solution. I cant do the protein shakes because I throw up every time I have one.

I don't know what happened. Before this, I was eating without a problem. Every meal is forcing myself to eat and its really driving me nuts. On the weekends its worse because I'm always so busy I forget to eat. Because I'm not eating how I should my weight loss is slowing down.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a phase? I just hit 6 months so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it?

@JAKE H so I ended up buying the fairlife protein shakes and they are delicious! Thank you so much for the recommendation! They don’t taste like any of the ones I’ve tried before. So far I’ve had a sip from each just to try but I plan on having a whole one tomorrow and I’ll see if I get a reaction from them since other protein shakes make me throw up.

Thanks again!!!

WOOOHOOOOO. I love to hear this not because i recommended them because its going to help you in the long run! Theyre great for a meal replacement and so good. Also, idk if this is a mental thing for me, but i find the COLDER they are the more filling, So sometimes ill put one in the freezer for 30 mins before i know im going to have it lol. Then its really like a shake. But im glad you like them. They have banana (which i think taste like egg nog, which i love) and vanilla (taste like melted vanilla ice cream). i usually get all 4 at a time and then drink two a day. People say isnt that expensive?! Well lets see. i use to spend $15 on breakfast and $20 on lunch. Now im spending $2.75 and $2.75.....lol....have a great day. Sorry just drank my morning coffee and i got happy fingers.

They taste better nice and cold! I’m going to try putting them in the freezer. I tend not to eat much on the weekend even when I’m hungry (I sorta forget) but these will be great on those days. Such an easy way to get protein in! And definitely worth the money!

I got an ice cream maker for Xmas and have been making protein ice cream with milk & protein powder. I'm going to throw one of these in it and see how it turns out. Hopefully like a protein frosty.

Please report how it goes!!! You can also do ff fairlife mulk and sugar free hersheys Syrup and pasteurized egg for a creamt dreamy egg cream. Even add a tsp of sf choco puddin mix!

So yesterday I gave it a shot! I followed your recipe exactly and measured everything. It was good! I thought the yogurt would be overpowering but it had a great taste and consistency! Thank you!

trust me your hunger will return ...

I am about two months out and I am having this exact problem. Getting my liquid and protein in for the day is a hassle. I have no desire to eat. I am planning on going back to what I ate during my pureed diet phase and try to start eating what I did in the beginning.

Yay! so glad you liked it and it sat well with you! It's pretty ugly (mine aren't pretty like yours), but tastes great!

be grateful for it. At some point your hunger is going to come roaring back, and you'll wish it was gone again. It's SO MUCH easier to lose weight when your hunger is in remission!

It's cyclical for me.

Some days I have to force myself to eat my 1000-1200 calories but other days I feel almost like a bottomless pit where even though i'm hitting my water intake, vitamins, protein, fiber etc I still feel hungry.

I'm basically 7.5 months out or so now.

I didn't feel hungry for about 5 months. I was SO happy! IT made things so much easier!

I was mad when I started feeling hunger pangs again! ?
