Undereating

A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭
Meridian, MS

People always think that because you're overweight that means you overeat. My doctor has actually told me that I need to eat more, but I don't normally have an appetite. I need meal suggestions to help increase my food intake. What can I do? Eating when I'm not hungry makes me nauseous, and my meds suggest I eat.

I like the protein cheese, nut snacks are good for that. wheni worked i would set an alarm for 2-3 hours and eat one of the small snacks. it helps stay off the blood sugar hills and vally's.

Ely, UK

I had a blood clot leading to a pulmonary embulusm last year. I'm still on wolferin although it has kept my blood stable would I still.be considered for this operation?. My doctor said my condition had nothing to do with my obesity but surely if I lost a large amount of weight I'd be less likely to suffer same again?

You should talk to your treating Dr before adding any other meds. He will give you all the information you need to know about the meds you are considering to take.

Saint John, NB

I had been having what I now believe was mild sciatica numbness and pain before a weight loss of 76 lbs. When I gained back @ 83 lbs I was hit with constant pain and spasms. It has been going on for almost a year now. Has anyone out there gone through this and found relief? What are my options? Is physio the way to go? I have found some stretches on YouTube but haven't tried them yet. Right now I take 2 muscle relaxants and 2 ibuprofen every morning before going to work so that I can function… read more
