How long does it take before you feel “normal” again post surgery? Meaning when you actually feel hungry and can eat more than a few ounces?

NOW? Not much. I can't eat my steak quite as rare as I used to (which is to say, not cold in the middle anymore). Eggs are always a 50/50 craps shoot. I absolutely loathe protein shakes now, but I'm sure with some time I'll be able to get through one again. Hint water makes me nauseated for some reason. But generally, things are pretty good. 😃 The first couple of months were their own slices of Hell, but it passed, thank gods. I got nauseated/ dry heaves/ puked all.the.time. I took 3 pregnancy tests just to make sure because it was ridiculous! (I didn't even HAVE morning sickness with my son!) I barely ate anything for, like, 2 months- it SUCKED! But then VOILA! My stomach fully healed inside- I guess? And just like that, unceremoniously it was over and I was on to the new normal.
