NO appetite - help?

[TennJenn 9]

Glad to hear you are doing well overall. I have trouble getting in enough Protein as well. I do drink atleast 1 Protein shake a day, but I can't eat enough "mushies" to get the rest of my Protein. And I can't handle more than one or one and a half shakes a day.

The only trouble with eating mushies I've had has been eggs. I'm just ready for some more variety. I've been limited with my mushies choices. I have been feeling a little down lately...but I've got a lot going on in life right now (school starting, football, softball,etc.). Sometimes I think I try to do too much & my emotional health suffers.

All in all, my recovery is going well. Be sure to let me know how it goes tomorrow. Good luck!:ohmy:

I wouldn't say that I'm depressed -- I think Mac put it best -- I'm PISSY ... and as KayKay said experiencing "remorse" because of the issues I have with the spasming of my esophogus ... and I don't want it to take 6 months like Dr. Aceves said it might ... so maybe depressed was not the proper word. I have been in depression before and don't EVER EVER want to go there again-- thanks for the concern SoCal, I greatly appreciate it

And KayKay thank you for the prayers -- I will take all that you wish to offer for I know prayer definitely works! Thank you.

I feel bad for all of you who don't like the Protein drinks. There are many that I like.

I also heard from another friend that the

Chike that Mac recommends is really good.

When I start running out of some of the stuff I have, I am going to order some of that. I do believe Mac posted some links where you can get samples of it. Plus she said she tried a lot of them, and those were one of the few she could tolerate.

I really encourage people to try to find one they like. Not getting enough Protein can be the cause of being so tired, and generally not feeling well.
