Kathy,

I know that there were several times during my first year where

food just really didn't interest me at all. I basically had to put

myself on a schedule and if nothing else, do a protien drink. It was one

of those things that I liked the idea that food was not a top priority

but I also did not want to get sick because I didn't eat. The only other

time I feel this way is when it gets really hot during the summer. Even

then I try to eat a little salad or something. Try to find something you

can tolerate. Again I emphasize tolerate, ya don't have to enjoy it,

like it, want it etc but you do need to nourish your body. It goes back

to that old saying that we now eat to live not live to eat.

Boy, can I relate to that. I go through stages like that.... it passes....

unfortunately. At least when I'm in that stage, I don't want to eat,

therefore, no munchies!

My response would be, THANK GOODNESS, and I would proceed to lose some weight.

I'd force myself to drink 4 protein shakes a day, and would let it go. If I kept

feeling that way for a long time, or lost too much weight, I'd get myself

checked out by my PCP to make sure I didn't have some dread disease, but

otherwise, I'd be happy to have an ebb in the " ebb and flow " of things.

Hi Group,

I have a VERY NEW problem for me. Over the last two

weeks I have become completely unimpressed by food.

Absolutely nothing appeals to me. I can think of

NOTHING I want to eat... Everything, even the suff that

used to excite me, just leaves me feeling, " YUCK. "

What now???

It comes, it goes. It's a sad, sad, day when food becomes interesting

again.

All I can say is that it simply doesn't last. Enjoy your freedom before the

chains clamp down again

Are you taking your protein, vitamins and water? If so, you can probably

get along for quite awhile without eating. I didn't eat for a period of

about 2 months, and I was fine. Some people have done it for longer than

that. My surgeon said that some people go for much longer than that without

eating. I know this is a little controversial, but I really don't see any

reason to force yourself to eat if you don't feel like it, as long as you

continue with your water, protein and vitamins.

Hi Kathy,

For me I was relieved when I became uninterested in food. And still not that

interested, I have to make sure that I maintain fuel for my body, take my

vitamins and supplement with protein like crazy. When I go through stressful

periods now, I up my protein uptake. For me, its like the dragon finally let

go...

I've eaten very light, or close to 0 since my foot surgery. The meds have

messed with my appetite & nausea thingy. But I kept up with my vites &

protein.

The only side effect is that my smallest clothes are kinda " comfy " now. LOL!

Although I will not maintain this lil wt loss, it is interesting to note

exactly how little food it took to lose any wt. I mean, maintained the same

5# range for 8 yrs, and then dropped some with the no food days. Well,

unless celery & s/f popsicles count as food. LOL! But that is what it took

to drop any wt. Shows me just how tenuous my normal wt is. Much deviation

and I'll go up. Had to starve to nothing to lose anything. <shudder>

No, not anorexic, not crazy, not trying to lose wt. All of my docs decided

to change meds about the same time as the foot surgery & accompanying meds.

Up dose, down dose, try this new thing. Shoot., my pouch was so mad at me it

just said I was stupid and IT WASN'T TAKING IT ANY MORE. !!!

I finally put myself back the way I was (on Thursday) and have had the

normal amt of food already. Good bye itty-bittiness. LOL!

So, what I'm saying is that even though this was kinda frightening & no one

could put a finger on it, things CAN change and will.

Find something else to do. Like, GO SHOPPING! LOL. That's easy for me to

say, since I hate shopping. Sometimes, you just don't feel like eating. It's

a strange and wonderful new experience. The last week, I haven't felt like

eating. Yesterday, I hadn't eaten at all, and my dear hubby was talking to

me on the phone...he knows how I am, and asked what I had eaten. I had to

tell him nothing, but then I went and opened a can of soup, and literally

forced it down. The day before, I had an ounce of cheese. Because he made me

eat it while I was on the phone with him. I'll be in serious trouble when he

actually gets to Afghanistan. My opinion is, don't worry about not wanting

to eat, but don't forget to take care of yourself, as I have. I know I am

grieving right now. But I'm thankful that it hasn't sent me into compulsive

eating, as it would have 21 years ago. For what it's worth, I've maintained

at 150 more or less, for 20 years. I'm guessing I'm going to be 120 when DH

comes home. At 5'10, I'll look like a model! LOL Well, sort of. 48, and with

saggy skin, I don't know who would want me to model for them. But, anyway,

don't worry much about not wanting to eat, if you're following the rest of

your program. Remember, there are more appetites than just food, and pursue

those appetites with gusto.

Hi Group,

I have a VERY NEW problem for me. Over the last two

weeks I have become completely unimpressed by food.

Absolutely nothing appeals to me. I can think of

NOTHING I want to eat... Everything, even the suff that

used to excite me, just leaves me feeling, " YUCK. "

What now???

Well group,

Come to find out is was a symptom of severe depression.

I have now joined the ranks amound you on

antidepressants.... Prozac... after me being able to get off

all medications. Now I am not only depressed, I'm pissed

at having to take the stuff.

All this is just way too much for me.

Remember that everything that goes into our body is a chemical, so is Prozac.

You have got to give your body what it needs or it withers and dies.
