I had gastric sleeve surgery on Feb 16th and everything been great I lost 63 pounds so far, but for the last week I have no appetite for anything, it’s like I’m force feeding myself just to get my daily Protein intake. Today was pretty horrible because I have no energy do to lack of eating but after two to three bites of anything I eat I don’t want it at all, I start to gag or feel extremely nauseous. Now about a week and a half ago I realized I hate eating do to you the mild discomfort (not pain) and don’t know if what I’m experiencing is really lack of appetite or just a mind thing.

I want to know if anyone experienced the same ? And if so what did you do to fix it. I don’t want to get sick or weak because I don’t want to eat

I didn't like eating for the first few months - it seemed like a chore and I was never hungry - but I wasn't experiencing pain or discomfort when I ate, though. I'd run it by your clinic and see what they say.

I didn’t feel hungry or really interested in food for ages either. Still have odd days like that. I had to eat to a routine - better to eat a small amount than nothing at all. I agree with @catwoman7 & think you should contact your medical team to discuss your nausea, discomfort & gagging.

It may be something simple that’s causing the issues. Multi Vitamins used to make me nauseous every day. Certain foods can cause me discomfort too - char grilled foods are too dry & coarse for me to eat. I recently discovered the reason I can gag & develop a build up of phlegm in my throat when I eat is because I haven’t drunk enough.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
