Is it normal to experience a decrease in appetite following a BBL procedure/surgery?

June 12, 2017
Asked By:dirtythirtybbl in Houston, TX

I had my surgery on Friday, June 9 in Miami, and I haven't really had much of an appetite since then. I've eaten very little anytime I've been presented with food. I'll eat a little then feel really full. Does this have anything to do with having to lie on my stomach? If a decrease in appetite is normal, how drastic might it be and how long might this last? I'm just trying to figure this all out. Please advise.
