 I am in this place of uneasiness. I am almost 6 weeks post op and have found myself in a weird phase of not being able to eat regular food without it coming back up. I have been to the ER for this and they are saying it is something not surgery related but there is something inside of me that says it is surgery related. So I am going to 100% real and honest for a moment. There is a huge part of me that wishes I did not do this surgery because of what I am going through now. Has anyone else ever felt this way after surgery?

Maybe it is just because it is a rough patch but it has me really worried about my choice to do this surgery. It would be nice to hear if anyone else has experienced thoughts like these.

I am 5 almost 6 weeks post op. I just found out yesterday that my body is in ketosis mode  (starvation mode). I haven't been hungry for a week now. It was to the point of feeling nauseated when I tried to eat. I was feeling dizzy and had a weird taste in my mouth for days so I called my dietician to see if this is normal. Right away she said no this is bad you're body is in ketosis mode. They told me to drink 100% fruit juice for the next couple days and it should go away. Of course when I was on the phone with her I had no idea what this meant. When I looked on the internet after we got off the phone I read about it and now I am freaking out. If you produce too many ketones you can die. Anyone else experience this and have words of wisdom or tips for me?
