I’m 21 days post-op from VGS..I have been on purée phase since day 14 (to go to day 30). I have been drinking my pre-op shakes still and doing a little purée, but honestly, I’m just not hungry. It takes everything most of the time for me to want to eat. Anyone else dealing or felt like this around this time?

Day of Surgery W: 253
Today’s W: 234

Embrace this time. Don't eat! Get ALL of your fluids in and MORE!!! And do what you need to meet your 60g of Protein requirement. That's non-negotiable. 2 Premier Proteins and you're done. Boom baby! Then go about your life as normal!

Don't force yourself to eat. You can make it on fewer calories and Protein Shakes. Enjoy this losing phase.

Stalls happen. Don't up cals or lower them. Just focus on meeting your Protein goals and following your doc's rules!!

I have my post-op surgeon visit tomorrow. Most (if not all) rules have been by my NUT/team. I have followed their book, except eating those little meals. I get all my Protein a day (shakes aren't the problem) and am hydrated! I will keep the course, no matter what! Thanks!
