Hello and welcome in the forum, Congrats on your weight loss so far. Yes its very normal to not feel hungry. The part of your stomach that sends the hungry signals has been cut away. Until it heals and knits together we are in happy land. I am 2 weeks shy of six months out and I still never feel hungry. We are the lucky ones. It must feel awful to be hungry and only eat tiny amounts or have to suffer shakes that go straight out of the stomach.

Had my RNY on March 22, 2022, very happy where I’m at in over a month and a half, I’ve lost 60lbs, and now able to wear shorts I haven’t worn for 6 years. Thank god I saved them haha. anyways, my question is is it normal to just not feel hungry, I get my protein and fluids in everyday as well as my vitamins but I have to force my self to eat something. Been on soft foods for 2 weeks and have 4 weeks to go but I just do not feel hungry at all. What can I do? Is it normal?

Totally the same! I am 5 weeks post op - I can eat so much more than others on this forum! Today, we had a shared lunch at church - I had one large sausage roll (minus the pastry casing), 3 tbsp of tuna pasta salad, 3 tbsp bulgar wheat salad, the full topping of a large slice of veggie pizza and a keto brownie. The worrying thing is... I didn't feel restriction. 😲I only stopped because I felt I should. Does anyone here think that a person's height and frame size has an effect on this?

Liver shrinking DIET pre-RNY
Sleeving It Reel replied to Mariann812's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Good luck, Mariann! It is exciting to know your surgery date is getting closer! That does seem like a long time to do the pre-op diet, but on the plus side, if you get really hungry, you could actually eat something substantial as long as it is prior to two weeks from your actual surgery date. I guess it will be good practice! I lost 12 pounds during my 2 week pre-op which was awesome because it put my right back into ONEderland! lol - I hear your frustration about the office foodies. Before my VSG it was a daily battle to stay away from all of the workplace snacks. Now when I look at the jars of candy and trays of donuts all I can think is how miserable I was after eating that stuff and how much better I feel now -
So i had issues with my horse pill sized Calcium pill (that i had to take 3 times a day!) I would make me nauseous and/or barf. Cutting it up smaller or crushing it somehow made the ickiness worse. Then i stared burying that effing pill in a tablespoon of greek yogurt and swallowing the spoonful and that did trick. Took me almost 2 months to figure this out though. But then I discovered those chocolate calcium soft chews and Calcium Vitamin Time became a good time of day lol

Thats a little odd. i am 3 weeks PO and my #2's are the most solid thing in the world that its painful to go number 2 lol. Doctor prescribed stool softeners which i take but dont seem to do much. Try taking GASX

I am 3 weeks post op and the only thing that causes me issues are vitamins. So far the trick i have learned with that is i take it and quickly go to bed with a ice pack on my head and try to sleep a little. Takes about 15-20 minutes for me to feel that vitamin and i start to feel nausea but it passes and i do fine. If i stayed up and awake i would throw up

Wouldn't this be a meal for when you move to solids? I'm surprised your stomach will let you have it 3 weeks out. I can't even take my pills without being miserable for half the day.

Is this normal?
Hop_Scotch replied to SleeveToBypass2023's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sounds like acid reflux. Assuming you are already on medication for acid reflux (most people need to take it for about two to four weeks post op), check with your surgeon/doctor whether you need something a little stronger for a while. -

I’m 3 weeks PO and I have the worst gas ever now and can’t trust my farts. I also have the runs every day. Maybe it’s from the mushy food or liquids idk. Is this normal?
-
When I take my pills in the morning I throw up and when I take my pills before bed I throw up. I’m 3 weeks PO. Is anyone else having this issue?

I'll give that a try this week and see how it comes out. I just saw a youtube video where someone made frozen salmon right out of the freezer using a nuwave and they basically just brushed on some olive oil and Mrs. Dash and then cooked it for 25 minutes straight, Since I don't think ahead to what I want for dinner usually I might just do that I'll probably try both ways to see if there's a difference or if I'll just keep going with the pressure cooker. Thanks for the suggestions!

Hitting Post Op Protein & 64 ozs Fluids
Arabesque replied to Crisscat's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I wouldn’t worry yet. I didn’t meet my goals for a little while but my surgeon was happy I was making an effort & close to where I needed to be. It got easier on purées because I was eating g three times a day During the liquid stage I wasn’t hungry or interested in eating & was only managing two meals a day: a shake & some soup/broth. Was probably only meeting about 2/3 to 3/4 of my goals at first. -
What was the first thing to give you dumping?
learn2cook replied to Doodle41's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I had the same symptoms as ms.sss. At 3 & 1/2 months on Thanksgiving, I tried Ben and Jerry’s lactose free ice cream. I had 1/4 cup and it hit me half an hour later, maybe less. I’m finding any sugar/carby food can trigger it, or sometimes it’s a reactive sugar drop a few hours later. Air popped light salt popcorn triggered it last time. I was never diabetic. I find dumping does keep me on the straight and narrow which is good! If you do want to try new foods, it helps to be at home with a time block of a few hours and a protein shake to counter the sugar lows. For those who think dumping is a get out of jail free card; there’s no weight loss. There may be a slight loss sometimes, but it’s water from the both ends pushing it all out. Mostly I find I still gain weight and trigger an asthma attack from all the inflammation. I have even measured my ankles and found them to be 2-3 centimeters bigger the day after a carb incident. -
You'll be fine, just don't do it again. It's 2 weeks of pain for a lifetime of health, just keep that in mind.

That looks delicious! Good job recognizing being full and stopping rather than just cleaning the plate! I love eating fish now and have been eating it regularly since the surgery. I get the pre-portioned 4 oz cuts frozen from BJ's, and have done salmon, pacific cod, and australian sea bass. Sea bass is the best. I can't cook so I actually make it in an electric pressure cooker with teriyaki sauce as the liquid base, and I have 3 oz of corn as my vegetable.

Today was day one of stage 2 diet. I had a 1/2 cup of tomato basil soup and some soupy instant mashed potatoes. It was spectacular. It's been 3 weeks since I've chewed any food.
