Lost interest

[Deb 0]

I lost the desire to eat. I think a lot of it had to do with all the gas in my stomach. I also did not want to drink and wound up dehydrated and back in the hospital. I don't crave anything and most foods just do not taste as good as it used to. It does not repulse me but it is just kinda there. Thank goodness I read on here about Prevecid working better for some people. I switched to that and it has made my life soooo much better. I just feel betters since I do not have gas and indigestion all the time. As far as feeling hungry, I really do not know how to explain it. Hunger does not feel like it did before I had surgery. I kind just kinda tell that it is time to eat. I do still find myself eating sometimes when I am not hungry. I also still eat to fast sometimes and boy is that miserable! Still have some old bad habits to work on.

I agree with the previous post about Stevia. It is the best sweetener from what I can tell. You can get it at Walmart and many other places. Just be careful to not get the one with sugar in it. Just plain stevia.

I was sleeved 2/4 and I still do Protein Shakes even though I can eat real food. I can only eat a very small portion and I'm scared I won't get in all my Protein and food just doesn't appeal to me. So I feel your pain:)
