Will I ever get my appetite back??
My morning sickness has subsided and so have my nightmares but my appetite has not come back! I only enjoy a select few things and cannot even choke down most things. Even things I enjoy like yogurt and spaghetti I could not get myself to eat today. My husband is getting frustrated with me and so am I! Does this ever go away?! I keep losing weight and I know that is not ideal! I think it has something to do with my lack of appetite. One thing I cannot handle are milk products! I am supposed to drink 32oz of milk a day and I can't do it! I can't even stand my calcium chews. It leaves this thick nastiness in the back of my throat that never goes away. I would give just about anything (except for all the weight I've lost! lol) to reverse my wls for just 1 day so I can eat a normal meal and enjoy it! I don't even care if it's healthy. But to just be satisfied and full, that would be amazing!! Does anyone else have this problem?? Does it ever go away??

I have found that the longer I go between eating the harder it is to eat. Sounds strange I know. If I have breakfast, a snack, lunch, a snack I am good - in the time it takes me to finish my day and get home and make dinner I eat 2 bites and am so done! IT is strange, I am down about 7 pounds since I found out that I was pregnant. I have been compensating with 2 pre-natals instead of 1 (I was switched to 1 because I was absorbing 2 too well)
Oh and my Dr told me to eat whatever works - if it is peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for a week at least it is something! And yes, I had PB&J On white bread (1 slice) for dinner every night for almost 3 weeks because it was all that sat! Tonight I wanted french toast in the worst way so that's what I had and not 10 minutes later I was in teh bathroom throwing it up.... just do what works! Maybe a protein shake will work? If the dairy bothers you maybe soy, rice or almond milk??
Hope you feel better!
