Ok so my first post here and I really hope I can get some help. My surgery was 10-27-16. Started at 318lbs, now I'm at 272lbs. I'm having real issues with getting the protein I need. I've tried GNC shakes, ISO pure, and premier protein shakes. All of them now make me want to puke! I cannot drink that stuff anymore. I also am having a real hard time eating anything. I've almost developed a complex about eating because of the way it makes my stomach feel. This past week I've been feeling like throwing up all day. Anything I smell or taste just makes me sick. Any help with a different way to get protein. I feel like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I've been feeling weak and tired and my Dr. told me it's because not enough protein. How am I supposed to get it in when all it does is make me want to vomit?

October Sleevers, how are you doing?
r8rs4lf replied to The New Kel's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I guess I'm the only one of the October sleevers that isn't do well. I was sleeved 10/27. Started at 318lbs and today weighed in at 269lbs. The weight is flying off, but constantly feel like vomiting. I know I'm not getting in the daily fluids or Protein because of the vomiting issue. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I wish I could just be admitted to the hospital and given an IV. There's just no way I can take down 64 ounces of Fluid a day. I struggle with 32. My dr is hinting that I feel like this because I'm not drinking enough. I think he's right because my urine is really yellow, don't have to go much and it's been a while since I did #2. Really, really frustrated at this point. Any help would be appreciated. -
My dr does have me on Nexium. That GENEPRO seems to be working for me although I still feel nauseaous. But like I said, if I sit still, I don't feel like that. Only when mobile. You sound like my dr saying I need to suck it up. It's very easy to say that!!! Trust me, I'm trying my very best to do what I'm supposed to. One thing I haven't been doing is eating because I hate the feeling I get. Like it's just sitting there. I did pick up some yogurt and apple sauce yesterday so I'll be trying to get down what I can.

I went and picked up GENEPRO from my local GNC. Added it to my Water content and it doesn't taste that bad. Of course I can still taste it, but not as bad as those shakes. Hopefully I can go with this for a while. Anyone got any advice on feeling nauseous all the time? It's like whenever I smell something or move around, I get that feeling. The only thing that works is just sitting down. I tried calling my Dr but I guess the office is closed today because no answer. I can't understand why all of a sudden I'm feeling like this. I've never felt so nauseated in my life!!!

That's the way I feel, like I have the smallest sleeve.

I'm going to GNC to get Genepro. Is that any good?
