Thank you, sweetie.Janet <doc_jade@...> wrote: No sweat honey, Just don't be like me. After treatment the food tasted so good, I added a few pounds. And that I didn't need. A size 0, dang girl you are the same size as my oldest daughter. You could be like my grandpa, he had no booty at all. So he carried paperback books in his back pockets. LOL Don't worry hon, Here is another thought. You might try some of

those healthy shakes, say like Ensure or Entrerex diabetic if you have a sugar problem, with some frozen yogurt blended in. Throw a banana in there. Or if you are drinking the vanilla kind, a tablespoon of peanut butter and vanilla frozen yogurt. That way you get the calcium, fiber(I drink the kind with added fiber). They are creamy, palatable to the taste. The kind I drink contains 237 calories. In fact I am drinking one right now, as I forgot to eat lunch. I know that when I was on treatment sometimes it was easier for me to drink something than try to eat. I could sip on a shake for a long time, but couldn't stand to just sit down and eat a meal, because of the smells from food. You might try that. But most of all don't sweat the small stuff, just keep trying. Love JanetKerri Landress <kerrilandress > wrote: Thanks. The plastic utensils is a great idea! I will definitely try it. My husband is giving me a lot of anxiety over the weight loss. He keeps buying me stuff like cheese cake and other rich foods and I just can't eat them. I tell him, I am forcing myself to eat what I do. I have been living off of fruit, dry cereal and frozen yogurt. I have no desire to eat anything else. Nothing sounds good and it definitely does not taste good. He is just worried, I know, but he thinks I am causing myself more problems with fatigue and my low blood counts. I have told him these are all side effects and will go away after tx. and my weight will go back up. It is depressing, though. My clothes are too baggy on me, so I went shopping over the weekend and had to buy size

0 jeans. My husband likes curves. My booty is gone!!! (lol)Janet <doc_jade > wrote: Kerri, You might have him re-read the info on treatment. One of the side effects is weight loss.

Hi Kerri,

Seems like fruit and yogurt are the main things that agree with me, too. I have

found that

cold turkey (I cooked one and sliced, bagged, and frooze it) has been fairly

easy to eat -

and then I can manage an occasional spoon of peanut butter :-). Haven't lost any

weight

yet - which figures since I could stand to take off a few pounds! Sounds like

you are

eating what you can! good thoughts, karen

When I was on everything tasted

spicey

hot and my usual foods didnt taste good

My son just turned two in April and he use to go through spurts with eating -

although he never ate much when he ate good. He is ALMOST 30lbs! He has been

eating SUPER lately though. I have no idea what has gotten into him. I really

don't care though - cause I love to see him eat!!!!!!!

Hi, I was wondering if anyone elses child has NO APPETITE! Not just

during an episode but on a regular basis. My daughter is 2 and only

weighs 22lbs. Her doctors aren't too worried about it but she can go

days without eating hardly anything. Just curious...

Yup, I've also got a bad eater on my hands. Some days she'll eat quite well but

she too can go for days with hardly anything. She's on track for height but not

for weight. Apparently I was the same as a child so I've been told by doctors

and my mother not to worry about it... so I try not to but it's hard! During an

episode she'll eat next to nothing but I think they're all the same.

Hope this helps

Jenn, it's been a long time since I've had a 2 year old but I have 4 kids and my

baby is 14 years old! I do remember that toddlers didn't consume much, it

doesn't take much to fill that tiny stomache but appetites usually picked up as

they would go through growth spurts.

Hi,

My (who hasn't been properly diagnosed with yet but we

think he probably has it) just turned 2 (end of March) and weighs

under 12kg which is around 28 pounds I think (we're metric here in

Singapore!) He goes through spurts - some days he eats loads, other

days, and especially just before, during and just after a fever

episode, he eats almost nothing and can lose 2-3 pounds in a couple of

days. I've been putting this down to the fact that he almost always

gets a bad throat during his episodes, sometimes that comes on as

full-blown tonsillitis and he's in agony for days, and sometimes it's

just a slightly inflamed sore throat for a couple of days, which is

helped with paracetamol and ibuprofen meds. He hasn't really gained

any weight for about 6 months now - stuck at about 11.7kg. Some days

even when he's not feverish he eats very very little. But he's happy,

active and seems to have plenty of energy when he's not in the middle

of an episode so I'm not too worried. On days when he will eat, he

eats everything - Chinese food, Indian food, Western-style food,

fruit, yoghurt, spinach, fish, all sorts of flavours and all sorts of

food-types (although he doesn't have a sweet tooth!)

I gather that toddlers often eat in spurts, though - the health

visitor that I saw for his 2 year check the other day said that his

weight was just below average but not to worry if he goes through

eating spurts. He's just slightly above average for his height.

One of his best friends (not ) is a very faddy eater - she's just

about to turn 2 tomorrow and goes through phases where she will only

eat one thing for several days....if her mum doesn't give in (which

she often doesn't), the child gets nothing. Yet she's MUCH bigger and

heavier than and constantly on the move, full of energy and

very happy and cheery! So I guess it's normal, and as long as the

child is active and happy then they must be getting what they need.

BTW my little one Isabel, 7 months, is a faddier eater than

already, she's a real fussy little madam :-)

My son had not appetite and when we got his tonsils out he finally started

eating. He still is very picky though. He is 4 and weighs 38lbs.

My daughter is only 22lbs. and she is 2 also. My son who is her twin, is the

currently has an ear and sinus infection so he is not eating too much. We were

just thankful he was not having a episode and it was actually something

the doctor could treat! We are 21 days fever free since starting Cimetidine!!!

My son barely has an appetite too, and then when he finally does get

an appetite he gets sick with his next flare and it all goes downhill

again. We definitely worry about his growth, as does his Doctor whom

is a GI/Nutritionist.

My oldest daughter was always a picky eater too when she was younger

and we always felt she was small for her age, and generally was

always below the bottom 20%; however, our son is even smaller than

she was which is a great concern.

He was born a nice size, almost 8 pounds at birth. He was in the

upper part of the growth chart in height/weight till the fevers

started and suddenly he dropped to below the bottom 5%.

He will turn 7 years old in 8 weeks, and just one week ago finally

weighed in at 40 pounds. We had to start giving him caloric

supplements a year ago because he was unable to gain weight in a very

long time ... since we started the supplements, along with various

medications, he was able to gain six pounds in the recent year. This

is the most weight he's been able to gain since he turned a year old

(he weighed 20 pounds at one year).

I was also a very skinny kid ... but I wasn't sickly like he always

is and we always take that into consideration too. We know without a

doubt that if he wasn't so sickly so often that he'd be a much bigger

boy.

Mason's surgeon did tell us once though that as long as the child

isn't anemic and that his bloodwork is all okay ... that we shouldn't

worry so much about his weight. But we still do ...

My daughter 5 1/2 will not have an appetite prior to and during her

episode. During her episides she can go days without eating. Its is

all I can do to get her to take a bite of toast. Even her favorite

foods she will turn down. She wants to eat it and takes a bite then

will say it doesn't taste good. She does not even want to eat cookies

or treats that I would only offer her on special occasions. but the

rest of the time she is fine. She was born at 9lb5oz and still

continues to remain above 90% for height and weight. Her fevers

started when she was 6 months old.

He is still picky. I think textures bother him. But he is getting so much

better. He started eating better once his throat healed after surgery. About 3

1/2 weeks.

Tony, " Every so often " she won't eat " properly " .  I'm not sure that's really a problem.  I've rarely known a kid who always ate " properly " --at least in the eyes of adults.

I'm not aware of any protocols to make a person hungry.  SMR training has done that on occasion with clients I've seen--especially early in training--since it makes people more aware of their bodies.  You are correct that the " appetite " protocol does tend to be more oriented toward reducing compulsive behaviors (compulsive eating). 

If the client is not extremely thin, or is not doing this for reasons related to body image, etc. then I guess I wouldn't worry about it.Pete-- Van Deusenpvdtlc@...

Hi all

I had my sleeve surgery on the 27th of March and I have already lost 12 lbs. It

was such a good experience all the way around. I would do it again tomorrow. The

Hospital and Dr.s and Staff were all amazing! I had 2 people with me, my friend

who had it done in Sept and has lost 67 lbs and my mom who was so freaked

out. Until she got there and met everyone and saw the place and people, and

figured out it was not some black market butcher shop.

Anyone considering this please go ahead.

Now On to my question? I feel like I have a little bit of an appetite. Is this

normal? I am dealing with the head games of eating just because it tastes good

or I am bored, or happy, or sad etc......

I am trying to really figure out if I am hungry or not. Guess it just takes

time.

Kristi

[Guest guest]

Kristi,I got my sleeve on Mar. 23 and came home on the 27th. YOu must have been one of the group of several I saw sitting in a row as I went on one of my walks around the halls. (I got a band 3 years ago and only have 20 more pounds to lose so I was not an "obvious" Aceves patient.I seem to feel some hunger too and when I consider that we are supposed to take in 600-800 calories a day and if I have only had 3 clear protein beverages at 115 calories each then I DO need to eat. It is not hunger like the pre-sleeve days but after a full day of teaching algebra it does not surprise me that I need two more shakes before bedtime (although there has to be nap (recliner) after the first one because I soooooooooooooooo tired after a day of school). I think this weekend I will look up web site, daily plate (?) to help track my caloric

intake. Today I know I forgot to drink enough water so I am trying to catch up a bit this evening and hope I still get enough sleep later (sure am grateful for indoor plumbing !!) It is good that you know about head hunger but check your intake too. You not only have to function you have to heal and that needs the 600-800 calories.gloria

Thanks Gloria

I know for a fact that I am not taking in that many calories right now probably

nearer to about 350-400- I am going to up my protein intake, and I know when I

start the 2nd phase I will be taking in more calories.

You probably wouldn't look at me and assume I was a sleeve patient as I weighed

195 when I went in and am 5'5 " tall, but I was miserable and tired of being so.

1 week post op I weigh 185 can't wait to lose more.

thank you again
