I'm having difficulty eating enough because I have no appetite at all!! I'm only getting 250-600 calories a day and have had so much gas pan! I've been walking around a lot and taking gas-x strips and taking my pain meds as needed. How are people getting in their calories with no appetite?

The most important thing right now is stay hydrated. Sip Water all day long, the appetite will come back (with a vengeance). You are still healing so don't worry about calories or weight loss. Sip your liquids and you'll do fine.

Good luck.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
