Thank you for your question. Losing your apetite after surgery can be a side effect of the anesthesia and medication. Try consuming meal replacements in the meantime and make sure to follow your surgeon's advice as for recovery. Best!

If you do not have an appetite for solid food, try drinking protein shakes that come in a variety of flavors. The change in appetite could be a side effect of the anesthesia. It usually increases as your activity level increases.
