I am also 5 days post op. I have the nauseousness throughout the day too... off and on. I think it's a combo of drinking things that taste nasty and not drinking enough. Sometimes I feel great, other times not. I also sometimes have pain from drinking. It is definitely getting better. I've been lucky to get the Isopure down. I thought I didn't like the Alpine Ice until I tried the Blue Raspberry and Orange .

Are you taking any nausea meds? I have a sublingual one and it helps me. I'm glad you're getting the isopure down! I've tried 4 flavors and so far: YUCK!

I had my sleeve on December 13, 2012, so I am 10 days post op. I am doing great getting my proteins down. I do Isopure Grape Frost. I drink 1/2 to 2 a day. I am getting down 64 oz of water with lemon a day. This wasn't hard as I used to drink a gallon a day so I actually feel dehydrated cutting back so on liquids. I am in the Full Liquid diet phase and this is getting old because with the exception of tomato soup it is hard finding cream soups strained enough to eat. So I have pretty much stuck to the Isopure. I keep trying to do light Muscle Milk or Atkins shakes as that is what I lived off of during the pre-op liquid diet but I find the shakes too heavy and I have to take a dissolvable anti-nausea after just a few sips. I am looking forward to next week on Wednesday when I can start the soft foods diet. After the pre-op and 10 days of ongoing liquid it is getting too limited. Further since I don't experience a feeling of hunger it is easier not to eat and I was faint all day on day 4 post op from not eating.

I had lost 12 lbs on the one week pre-op and then gained 6 pounds while in the hospital hooked up to IVs. Now I am down from a starting weight of 206 pre-surgery to 186. I still have a long way to 130 but this is the beginning.

Oh goodness! I'm sorry to hear you're having a hard time with full liquids. I start them today and I can't wait to try muscle milk. I also bought myself some Lactaid milk to drink this week in case my attempts with skim milk mixed with powdered milk go bad. It's been hard just sipping broth, jello, powerade zero and water. I also bought sugar free hot cocoa that i plan to mix with milk and chocolate protein powder when it comes in the mail!

I still get hungry, but I know what you mean about feeling faint. I felt like that yesterday and I couldn't even go home to sleep. Once I slept though, I felt much much better. Try and stay hydrated and catch some Z's. Best of luck to you.
