 I'm 3 weeks post surgery for a TT and BL and feeling good.  One thing I've noticed however is that my appetite has increased insanely.  Is it just me?

I'm 16 days post op LBL and I don't really have much of an appetite yet.  Other than protein drinks, most food is actually making me nauseous.

 Interesting I don't have any food problems.  Are you still on medication?  I have been off for a week.

I'm only taking a small amount of painkiller now.  Just when I need them, which is usually at the end of the day.

You are healing and need extra calories for that process -- especially protein, veggies, and fruit.  Eat up ... wisely :-)     --Dorothy

Dr. Lomonaco is about to do my LBL and BL and wants me to double my protien intake after surgery while I heal.  Maybe your body is needing more protien to heal, so it tells you by making you feel hungry.
