I'm having problems
Hi Everyone...I don't know what's going on...I can't eat anything
I tried chicken, beef, shrimp, fish, and now even tuna makes me sick.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I don't feel hunger and I'm starting to just not eat. I can't even drink the protein shakes anymore because I can't stand the taste.
I don't have any energy either...when I do try to eat I go really slow and chew chew chew and the pieces are so small you almost need a microscope to see them and it still feel like it gets stuck.
What's going on did anyone ever feel like this?
Thanks for your help.

Hello Erminia...I have not experienced what you describe, but I suggest calling your surgeon's office and speaking with them. I was told by my MD's group to call them if I were to ever have difficulty eating what I am supposed to. I also agree with you about the protien drinks...I have not tried one that I like enough to consume on a daily basis. So far I have been able to eat the amount of protein I need to.
As far as your weight, I hit a 3 week plateau at about the same time as you. I then lost 7 lbs in less than two weeks after that plateau. I think our bodies just need some time to adjust.
Hang in there!!
I would call your surgeons office ASAP. It could be many things. You want to make sure he knows what's going on.
Your body has probably gone into starvation mode and is storing what little it gets when it can get it. Try and push at least shakes and fluids so you are getting something in.
Good Luck
Maggie
