not hungry at all

[urnoturcar 0]

Hey all, Could i get some advise? I worry i am not getting enough nutrients because i am not hungry at all.

It's day 6 and i could care less if i eat anything. I keep sipping broth and forcing myself to get at least 4 oz of a protien shake in a day and an occasional popsicle, but other than that i am not hungry at all.

Is this normal? Is there a supplement i should be taking?

Im sipping lots of Water and trying to get broth down, but worried....

(it is kind of nice not having any desire to eat, but a bit concerned )

This is a normal stage. Enjoy it, because it won't last much longer!

Yes, keep doing what you can to get in some nutrition. The only supplement I was require to take is a good Multivitamin and calcium chews but ask your surgeon what they recommend.

Otherwise, I called this my "honeymoon" phase and some days I wish I were still in it!
