2 1/2 weeks post op

[Chaelove0810 61]

So I'm 2 1/2 weeks post op I'm down 28 lbs but I feel like I been hovering at my current weight for like a week now its annoying! But I realized that I barely eat I Dont get my fluids or Proteins in like I should which is NOT good..but I'm just NEVER hungry.

Any ideas on how I can start staying on track?

Also I'm on mushy foods .. What are some mushy foods that are high in Protein? ?.. besides eggs tuna fish and Greek yogurt

There are apps that remind you to drink. That's a great start to your loss - but you definitely need to get your Protein and fluids. You can have creamy Soups (no chunks), hummus, refried Beans (with cheese & sour cream), cottage cheese, ricotta bake (should be able to find recipe online), add Protein Powder to pudding. You have to eat even if you're not hungry.

Occasionally I feel kinda "empty", but I haven't been hungry in more than two months since my surgery. Eat on a schedule, your body needs fuel.

Thanks that's what I was thinking to do start a schedule

My NUT suggested eating 5-6 small meals about 3 hours apart. That may be too much just 2 weeks post-op.
