Hey gang I'm really having a hard time this week in eating. I have zero motivation to eat anything and find it such a chore. I'm doing terribly on my calorie and Protein intake. I'm getting in about 400 calories a day. Any suggestions on what to do. Getting to 900 calories a day is so very hard.

Does it just seem like to much bother or are things not sitting well? I would also wonder if you are getting enough Water? That could make you not feel well and not feel like eating.

Are you still restricted, diet wise? I know towards the end of my phasing in, I was just sick of the same things. I tended to eat the same things all the time so it felt like a big chore.

You really need to try and get in more calories though, your body could think it's starving and send you into a big stall. That even makes it harder to get motivated.

Not sure how much help this is but hang in there. You can do it!

I'm trying to avoid stalls by keeping my calorie and Protein intake up. I eat a lot of the same things. I drink about 48 oz a day. I exercise 4-5 times a week cardio. I avoid carbs like the plague. I don't get sick/throw up but eating is such a chore. And I do get nauseous sometimes from the shakes.< /p>

It may be associated due to my cycle and getting the Mirena put in this week.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

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