Hello amazing people i had my surgery on 9-9 thursday around 4pm - i have regained the feeling of eating 2 days ago although ive been distracting myself - im now on my 2nd day of vitamins- Protein Shakes but i feel like i eat, when i smell and see people eating my brain goes into ape mode and i wana consume ive been trying to be patient but i find myself now calling my doctor to ask ( he wont reply go figure ) - so i was wondering what did others here feel and what they did about it? - im
Not gona put any food in my mouth until i talk with my doctor but id love to know how others here dealt with it - the hunger feeling is the same before surgery although i havent been drinking much Soup due to not being able to make it myself and no one sells it here like a broth-

As always thanks for reading and writing back , hope you are all doing well your amazing!


P.s. i went out for first time yesterday all my friends are smokers was abit tough i felt sometimes like a Stone was in my stomach - i know its not right but i was lonely and needed to go out.

Buy some chicken and/or beef bullion cubes or powders and dissolve them in boiling Water for a broth. I found that the saltiness of the broth satisfied my hunger. I tried to eat something at about 5 days and it hurt my chest so I stopped and waited. It was enough of a scare to get eating out of my mind. I just stuck to the shakes and Bone Broth. YOu can also buy bone broth on Amazon and have it delivered if you need it.

I was the same way - I was like a shark looking for food. Finally my sister made me the most amazing seafood broth which saved me. Hang in there but it sucks - I know. I felt like a crazy person.
