Nancy- So glad to see you back. I hope your home is now dry and secure.
I am having the opposite problem. Rarely do I have a problem with any foods. I really snacked quite a bit this weekend on carbs. But today I am back on the treadmill and had a protein breakfast of egg and sausage.
I would call the clinic. They just might have some good advice. They might even prescribe something for the nausea. You know you might just be suffering from stress from your house problems.

I think you are right on track.
Nov. 2005 started 6mo Options class at Kaiser 321lbs
Surgery date 291lbs
Today 216lbs
So 75lbs since surgery and 105lbs total.

Hello Nancy!
Sorry to hear about your food issues. My issues are opposite. I feel I'm eating too much. I do have trouble with fats (in more than average amounts) but I don't have any problems otherwise.
Take care Nancy. It is nice to see you on the board again.

Congrats on your weightloss so far! You are doing excellent! Its hard to say what is or isnt average because everybody is so different! I started at 252 and now am 199 so down 53lbs!! I am now 49lbs away for goal and am working hard to reach that before my 1 year surgery annerversary!

Sorry to hear about your hard time. I would definately call the clinic for some advice. You said you dont think its a medical issue - do you think its mental? Maybe try finding a psych in your area that deals with EDs if thats your feeling.
Im not dealing with this issue... Im actucally at the other end. I can eat whatever I want and have NO food intolerances. Im scared that I will fall into old habits because I do not have a hard time eating

Hi Nancy,
Glad you are back, I have not been wanting food either. I dont know about the wanting to vomit when you smell food, it wouldnt hurt to call the nut, see what he/she thinks then go from there as to talk to the Dr or not. Better to be safe.
Did you have a good Thanksgiving? I hope so. I did.
Be sure and let us know ok

Hi Everyone!
It is so great to be back with you all,I missed being here with you.I want to thank you all for your prayers through a very rough time,we survived and life is somewhat back to normal.
I am struggling so much with lack of appetite.I have to force feed myself to eat and when I do I get so nauseous(sp) just smelling or looking at food.I would be so content to live on protein shakes,and stage one soft foods(I do get my protein in every day)
I am honest with ya'all I am really scared,I know it is not a stricture because I have no problem keeping food down when I eat.Well most of it,I still have problems with some foods but that is normal.
Is anyone else dealing with this?
I want to call the clinic but I don't think it is a medical issue,what do you all think and what would you do?
((hugs))
Nancy
