Not eating and just feeling bad all together



Recommended Posts

Thinking I was handling everything so well til last Friday. I'm a month post today. Nurse at Dr office says it's just nerves waking up and it's normal. Still I dont want to eat anything. Protein from food hurts. Barely getting shakes and Water down. The pain where my large incision was which is healed has come back today on top of it all. I just want to sleep sleep sleep. Not depressed I'm just exhausted. I'm sure that's from a decrease in Protein as well. My fiance is so great and supportive but I just feel blah.

If you are not drinking fluids it can make you feel very very crappy and run down. Are you at least getting 64oz of Water?

If not, as bad as you feel it will not get better until you do.

Also, if you have pain coming back I would request to see the doctor.

Haven't had awful pain any more, feeling ok. I've put off chicken for a while because its getting stuck I think. Dr says this is all normal. Still tired but considering everything I have been doing lately guess thats normal too. Did give myself my monthly B 12 tonight so that may help. I'm down to 234. Happy about that. I am only working 1 more day this week and 2 next so I see rest in my future. Odd because I have never been a nap person

I feel the same exact way. I dont get in nearly enough Protein. I could go all day and then by late afternoon im like i havent had Protein and may be able to muster two sips. I cannot deal with the protein. Not shakes. Not greek yogurt. But Water and Powerade zero im fine with. And ive been feeling the effects also. Super sleepy.

For those that don't like greek yogurt.Try some sugar-free flavor syrups.They are by the coffee section.I know at Walmart.You can also buy them on Amazon and other website.You can also add a little crystal light or sugar free Jello dry.this breaks up the plain old tastes of things.I have also put on cottage cheese to add a flavor.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
