Losing interest in food

Today I struggled with eating. I just don't feel like it. I'd rather just sip stuff... I'm so thirsty... and forget about the food. I'm amazed that I even feel this way. I thought I'd love the puree stage but honestly, I could stay on liquids and be just fine. It isn't that purees make me sick or anything either. Everything I've tried has gone down fine and I haven't gotten sick on anything yet. It's just.... I have lost interest in food. Nothing sounds good, and it is so much work to eat. lol I never in a million years thought I'd feel like this... and maybe it will change tomorrow, but today... food was just "ick" to me. If I could have liquids and popcicles I'd be happy. I'm 15 days out... I wonder if this is normal? Anyone else finding that their addiction to food really is going away?

Hi Amber, I am 1 month post op today and I feel the same way. I just don't want to eat. I am happy just drinking. It is too much work for the little taste I get. I have gotten sick a few times because either I eat to fast or the wrong thing. I have lost 28lbs and that is great but just not interested in eating any more and that is totall uncharicteristic of me. I hope it changes also. I keep eating what I need to eat especially protein. Good luck and take care. Robert
