Anyone else stop enjoying food?

I know I am only a week and 5 days out but I just feel bored with food and I am basically forcing myself to have meals. I get hungry but I look at the stuff in my fridge and I just feel bleh about it.

Did you guys go through this?:help:

I went through this, I was sick of Soup and when I got on mushies, I got stick of that I would leave stuff as I couldnt be bothered.

Dont worry once you get on solids you will be fine, the food looks better.

I so agree with you, I am only four days out from being banded and I am just not wanting to eat (I mean drink/sip) anything. I am worried about protien and stuff but nothing seems good and I get full so fast. This all makes me very happy, this is exactly what I wanted/

This totally happened to me, too. but once i started experimenting and finding out what i could eat, i started enjoying food again. i kinda miss not liking food now, to be honest with you!

I actually enjoy food more now than I ever did before.

I savour my food rather than inhaling it (pre band days) and I enjoy high quality foods rather than quantity.

It's an individual thing I guess.

Ditto here. I love my meals now...savor every bite....rather than seeing how much I can shovel into my pie hole.

I think many of us go through this phase of not being hungry and food not looking appetizing. Enjoy this stage in your band journey. It is such a wonderful time to realize that food does not need to be a part of every single moment of your life. You can go without food right now because of the swelling around you stomach. I was told this exact same thing three months ago and it was so true. I now have an appetite, but back then, I really thought that I would never want food again.
