I'm a ER/ICU holding nurse and I'm off for 6 weeks. Had my surgery Oct 6th and already lost 46lbs! My scrubs are huge too and can't wait to scrub shop!

Hello all! I am almost 3 weeks post op and I was wondering if anyone is having the same problems as me. I can not tolerate most sugar free items. I get a terrible upset stomach and nausea. But if I drink something without sugar free I'm fine. Is there something wrong? I'm kind of torn between drinking and eating what I'm supposed to and feeling sick or drinking the other stuff and feeling fine. I've been just drinking water lately. I see my doctor in 2 days.

I'll have to try that. Been using water when taking my vitamins.

I do. But the chalky taste is killing me.

Had mine October 6th too. So far, so good. Following everything the doctor said and trying to get all my vitamins down.

Had surgery October 6th and still working thru the recovery process! Taking 6weeks off to make sure I'm okay at work (12hr shifts in an emergency room). Hope you are recovering well!!!!

I used the premier protein shakes and really likes them.

Thank you!!!! I've been keeping the water close by and taking sips. Also been keeping an eye on the color of my urine!! Sounds gross, but I want to make sure I'm hydrated! Popsicles sound mighty good! Need to pick me up a box! Glad to know this time shall pass!

Hello everyone! I'm post op 3 days and I have to say this is the hardest thing I have ever done. Every time I drink anything, I feel like it's stuck in my chest. I'm on full liquids and only drink about one ounce every 15 mins. I've been walking and passing gas, but it's a bit of a struggle trying to get all my protein in and I can't. Also having the worst back pain and due to having weak stomach muscles, my surgeon stitched them up to tighten them and that has not been comfortable either. I want to be successful at my weight loss, but I am feeling a bit defeated at the moment. Any suggestions? ????
