stomlin75 161 Posted February 13, 2013 You will eat normally again. I can eat anything at this point (surg. Dec. 7) and the main focus now is listening to my body to know when I have had enough. Your focus will change a lot. Just make sure you keep drinking Water, even if it is room temp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tawnie 99 Posted February 13, 2013 Hi miss Tiffany I feel the same way. Loved Water now I get weird pains. Doc said can last 1-3 months. . I am only on week 4. It has improved but not where I would like. food. My relationship with food has changed. Never thought I would say that. I am in Florida visiting sister. I was a cheap 2 dollar date at Mexican rest. I got a chicken taco. No shell. I watched family gorge on what I used too. Felt a little jealous. Them after about 5 bites no longer .... I love cooking and baking. Big adjustments. We will be fine.

LifetimeLoser 208 Posted February 13, 2013 mmmm yeah I came out of surgery with the only thing taking away my thirst was ice Water or ice. I never had that problem. I'm sorry I'm of no help. I hear you on the calorie deficit. Some days I only get like 200 calories...I'm 12 days post op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bethxxx 304 Posted February 13, 2013 I'm 3 weeks out and I can have ice Water now, I'm guessing that will get easier for you. I know what you mean about not feeling like eating. I find myself forgetting to eat and having to force something down. I'm sure things will get better though. Patience patience Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's not the problem lol the problem is I don't feel like I'm eating enough... Anyone else feel like this? Will I ever eat like a normal person? I have been drinking ice Water since the day after surgery with no issues. I love water so that was a sigh of relief for me. I am 15 days post op and I too feel I am just not getting in enough of anything except my water. I have good days and bad days. I have read it will get better!
