I Feel Good But I Barely Eat



Recommended Posts

It's me again.... I went to get the endoscopy done Friday. They open my stomach a little which was closed. First two days I can jump ropes Lolz.. Felt great.

Now I'm going reverse.... I'm vomiting & I'm not really eating.

Strange thing is I feel good. I can live on Water & not eating. The little I eat mash potatoes sunflower seeds salmon fish makes me feel good & happy. I'm not in a bad mood or anything.

Will I be like this forever? The love for food is gone. Yes I will tell my surgeon all this I'm feeling.

I heard it is the honeymoon phase. Our nerves are cut in the surgery when they come back we will feel hunger again. I would make sure your getting your Protein and liquids in daily. As much as you can in the beginning but as time goes on it is a must I have been told. Good luck!

I think the voimiting is a problem. Constant voimiting can cause a lot of internal damage and u don't want to end up anoxeric. Im not voimiting but I had a hard time eating and my nutrition told me to find whatever I can to stay down and get calories in. Can u do Soups? fruit? Or crackers? I stick to super soft stuff for right now.

Sounds like Water retention... Try to stay off your feet for a while if u can... Are the sunflower seeds salted?? That could make you retain water.

Sorry you are feeling bad. I'm glad they opened you up a bit. Please try and get your portein in each day it is so important. Please tell your doc about your legs. Unfotunately you cannot live on Water alone.. you need to get nutrition. I hope you feel better !!!

      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?

      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.
