I just don't feel like eating today.
I drink a lot and might use protein shakes so I ate least get my protein. If it's just one day though, I don't worry about not eating much and I don't even worry if I don't get a lot of protein for just one day. I just make sure I get my fluids. If I still don't feel like eating the next day, I usually just eat anyway. But one day without eating much won't hurt.

Yep! I'm the same way. I'm 5 weeks post-op and I don't feel like eating quite a bit of the time. Like you said, nothing sounds appetizing and I definitely don't 'feel' hungry, so it's hard to eat when I don't feel hungry. I've been making myself eat what I'm supposed to but then end up just feeling nauseous.
I get those days too. Mainly non workout days I typically live by a schedule and eat at set times if I am hungry or not, but if not I only eat what I have planned for that time. If I don't I could go days and not really eat much of anything.

Yep...alot. Some days I will take a bite or two and then put it away. I still drink my shakes and such as that even though there are days I don't want those either. Those days are still shocking to me .... I would have NEVER of dreamed there would be a day that I didn't want to eat.
