I was sleeved on July 24th. At first I was eating an drinking a lot trying to get in my recommended amounts but now at almost 6 weeks out I have completely lost my appetite. I dnt want to eat. Maybe once or twice a day is all because usually I forget to. (I'm still drinking though). Is it possible for my stomach to shrink even more because I'm eating so little? Because when I do eat it seems like it takes less to fill me up. I used to be able to take 4 or 5 bites and I started to feel it. Now it's like 3 or 4 bites. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?

I've noticed the same disinterest in eating. I don't like the full feeling anymore, it doesn't sedate me like it used to. But I'm afraid of losing my hair so I still try to eat enough to get my nourishment. As far as being able to eat less I think I just got less interested in eating more than I need.

Well guys I ended my stall yesterday morning when I went down .4 lbs. And today I got on the scale and dropped about 4 lbs!!!! Turns out I was eating to few calories again. This is my second stall and it seems like when I stall it is because I am not eating enough calories and spreading my meals too far apart. I am now at 269.4!!! A total loss of 38 lbs!!!!!!

what amount of cal should i be eating im five weeks out ????

I had my surgery July 2 down 58 Pounds

That's great, does that include any pre-surgery weight loss, or is that all since surgery?

Hi, Surgery 7/30

Beginning Weight 224

Pre-op 215

Current 198

I'm pleased with the results so far but I wish I could comfortably eat something besides yogurt and the Protein drinks. I tried some fish tonight, tilapia, ate about 2 oz. It feels like the whole portion is sitting in my throat. I'm pretty miserable, really. I'm exhausted all the time and am totally constipated. And I feel like I need an antacid every three hours, when the prescription is for every 12 hours. Sigh. I am praying to feel remotely normal soon. I have so much to do and really, all I want to do is lay around. I haven't left the house in two days for more than 20 minutes. Sorry to complain, I know this is temporary. (God, I hope so!)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
