I will be 3 weeks post Tomorrow will be 3 weeks post op for me and my first "freezing" episode. Ftr, I'm ALWAYS hot. Like sleep with the fan on in the winter hot.... but not last night lol.

Hi..... today marks one week post op. Started the journey last August and my surgery was 1/27. My biggest (and most unexpected) hurdle has been NO DESIRE TO EAT. NOT EVEN A LITTLE. I called my doctors office on Tuesday bc I was extremely weak and not sleeping. Went in on yesterday and I had dropped 14.3lbs (starting weight was 264.3 and I was 250 at weigh in) Doc told me to drink for juice or something with sugar in it and switch to ensure drinks. He's worried about me getting malnourished. Said we will get back on track with the diet once I'm feeling better. I did that but the only mistake I made was sipping through a straw AND drinking while eating soup. HUGE MISTAKE. I won't do that again. Today is better though. Has anyone else gone through this as far as NEVER being hungry?

So I'm now at 21 days post op and still no real appetite. But, I am now making myself do my diet.

Hearing that I'm not the only one who isn't hungry makes me feel better. Thought I was going a little crazy lol.

I had gastric sleeve done. I thought I was crazy when I just didn't and still really don't get hungry. Dr said no big deal and it's normal. It may be normal but it still feels odd
