Hubby just is not doing well. I made a great lunch of some of his favorites, and he could barely eat.
I made meatloaf, and Brussels sprouts and roasted potato wedges.
He put a cover over his plate and will try again later. I did get him to eat a little Cutie orange.
He is sleeping now.
I surely hope he gets to feeling better.

He just does not feel like doing anything and so does not develop an appetite

I hope when he gets the pain taken care of he will feel better all over.

It is hard on him to always be in pain.

@Deepizzaguy I did not realize you had had covid.I am sorry for that. He just has injured his body doing more than he should and his muscles have gotten weak.

@GardenGerty I understand what he is going through since I had the same problem due to COVID 19 last year.

The pain means he just does not feel like doing anything, even eating.

Not to make light of his condition, but maybe he should try that soylent drink @FourWalls was talkin' about...

VA was giving him Ensure +, but it has a ridiculous amount of carbs. A couple of his doctors have stated that he is pre diabetic. There were more carbs in one than he should have in a day. I am making homemade eggnog for him now. I have been given lots of powdered eggs and that is a fabulous use for them. I use whole milk and heavy cream, but less sweetener than called for. Using maple syrup because it also has minerals in it. He would also like it with molasses.

@BarBaraPrz — those protein shakes basically got me through covid last year. Not a green one named Soylent, though…..

When people don't have appetite, soup will be good for them. Or maybe he's not just hungry.

He has a lot of pain lately and that takes his appetite away. He is very inactive, because of the pain.

@GardenGerty That's hard to deal with. I hope he will get better soon.

He is in pain, and does not move around much at all (I think that makes it worse). I think it also depresses him.

@GardenGerty Thanks, I think I am. Just got a pain pill for a migraine, so hoping to sleep tonight.

I am hoping physical therapy helps him move more and therefore eat more. We shall see.

I am so so sorry that your husband is not feeling well. I love meatloaf. I made it in the crockpot and it was really good. I hope he will be able to sleep and the sleeping helps him feel better.

He is not likely to feel better until he gets the pain taken care of.
