U need to call your surgeon ASAP. Water only for any length of time is dangerous after rny. There is the possibility of some nutrient deficiencies causing permanent damage. I'd run not walk back into my surgeons office and get checked out. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deaddemmama 474 Posted July 11, 2013 I sometimes forget to eat becaue am not hungry. I eat at 7,11, and 5 everyday, no exceptions. Even if it's only a little bit, I do it to get into good eating habits. I do Protein in Vitamin Water in between. I can tell now when I need fuel...not hungry exactly, but more a body need for calories. 1 meyouus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeticiaHuggins 177 Posted July 11, 2013 I think this is a normal feeling.... And it will pass. You definitely need to get in the habit of eating even if its just a bite her or there. Over the next weeks it will become easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mel3620 299 Posted July 12, 2013 I don't want to eat anything, either. I agree it all tastes nasty. I hope that this changes in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was worried that it would never change. I'm a foodie, and I used to be a chef, and I was really freaked out. Now I indulge myself with the finest healthy ingredients. If I'm eating so little, it's going to be only the best. So indulge yourself when food starts tasting good again, and it will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am so afraid of becoming anorexic or something, since I don't want to eat. I try to force myself to eat. But that doesn't help very much.
