Hey guy, hope all is well on your ends!

So is it only me or have any of you lost desired for food? I was sleeved in 9/19 I have lost approximately 30 plus pounds! I have not been eating like I should, food doesn't call my attention anymore, the things I used to LOVE too eat get me feeling disgusted. I'm losing interested in chicken, and other meats! I find everything to be extremely salty. Has anyone else experienced this? How long did it last? I'm not reaching my calorie intake, At all !! Although the pounds are at a stall I see the inches coming off! This is a bit overwhelming! Even around the time of the months my craving have vanished! My love for popcorn is still there [emoji5]

Gastric bypass on October 3 2016. I hated both the smell of and the taste of food. It lasted for about four months. The downside is that you don’t meet your Protein goals and you may loose your hair. Food tasted sweet to me. Even if you hate to eat you must. I don’t think you can have popcorn. Ask you Nut. Good luck and follow your program and you will get past this phase.

I was sleeved aug 21. I still love all food. I wish I didn’t. Some days I’m not eating as healthy as I should. Other days I’m doing great. I’ve lost 46 pounds but feel I should be losing more. Who knows. Getting discouraged.

I feel the same way, I came in this thinking I would be 80pd lighter by now, but I'm just not hungry I have no desire whatsoever.

You are so right, but it's so hard I tired my butt off but I can't seem to eat all the food! It's a work in progress and in doing ok! I have an app to track my intake and I'm not even close to the 800_900 a day!

I still after a year only eat 800 to 850 calories a day. You are right it is HARD. You can only do what you can do. No one can ask more than that of us not even ourselves. Praying for all.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
