I also couldn’t drink coffee, but right back to my morning 1 cup...also I loved Mayo I hate it now, a matter of fact I’m not a fan of creamy things or anything dipping, I use to love dips and creams -

I also have been taking Zofran I’m still taking it, I still get nauseous but a little less, sugar free ice pops helped and hard ginger candy

Rant away, I felt exactly the same way you did...I promise it gets better...the best thing that helped me then and even now was sugar free ice pops, I was getting fluid and it didn’t hurt I ate like 3/4 a day...good luck you got this xo

Hi I also loved drinking water, water to me tasted weird in the beginning, but now it’s ok as long as it’s ICE cold, I also eat sugar free ice pops that helps a whole lot! ‘Good luck

Nausea/vomiting/heartburn after sleeve
Lena809 replied to TX4everLinds's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yes this is normal, I had the same issues... I had a hernia repaired so I’m sure that didn’t help either...I am close to 4 months pre-op and still get nauseous and vomit....I told my dr and he prescribed me nausea meds, it does help...I believe because I have a weak stomach, I was nauseous throughout all my pregnancies too, so that’s what it feels like... -
I believe you can stretch your stomach but I’m sure it takes a while...

pre op liquid diet ideas and help
Lena809 replied to aseret's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It was very difficult to drink in the beginning, but it’s a little easier...yes you can make your own soup, but it’s just broth you need, the bone broth they sell has much more protein, I also was able to eat sugar free ice pops which I still eat...I hope I helped -
