Lost of Appetite

[Stina22xo 8]

I had gastric sleeve surgery on Feb 16th and everything been great I lost 63 pounds so far, but for the last week I have no appetite for anything, it’s like I’m force feeding myself just to get my daily Protein intake. Today was pretty horrible because I have no energy do to lack of eating but after two to three bites of anything I eat I don’t want it at all, I start to gag or feel extremely nauseous. Now about a week and a half ago I realized I hate eating do to you the mild discomfort (not pain) and don’t know if what I’m experiencing is really lack of appetite or just a mind thing.

I want to know if anyone experienced the same ? And if so what did you do to fix it. I don’t want to get sick or weak because I don’t want to eat

I didn't like eating for the first few months - it seemed like a chore and I was never hungry - but I wasn't experiencing pain or discomfort when I ate, though. I'd run it by your clinic and see what they say.

I didn’t feel hungry or really interested in food for ages either. Still have odd days like that. I had to eat to a routine - better to eat a small amount than nothing at all. I agree with @catwoman7 & think you should contact your medical team to discuss your nausea, discomfort & gagging.

It may be something simple that’s causing the issues. Multi Vitamins used to make me nauseous every day. Certain foods can cause me discomfort too - char grilled foods are too dry & coarse for me to eat. I recently discovered the reason I can gag & develop a build up of phlegm in my throat when I eat is because I haven’t drunk enough.
