I had that feeling quite a bit the first couple of weeks I was banded and I found that walking helps. Or I went to bed and slept it off. Do you think maybe you ate too much too fast?

I don't think so I'm still on mostly liquids. The women from my Dr. office thinks that I need more protien, I'm not taking in enough, which is true , I was told that at my Post op put I never knew that not enough wouyld make you feel so sick. So I am going to try to take in more today and see if it helps Thanks

I learned, pretty quickly post-banding, that milk and milk-based foods nauseate me. Lactose intolerance postop is pretty common.

I wonder if you're experiencing this.

(FWIW, cheese and yogurt, because of the bacterial cultures they contain, don't cause problems. But milk, puddings, and so on--they're a no-go.)

ETA: After reading the other responses, I wonder whether you're getting enough Fluid. While not enough Protein might be the problem, it's kind of early in the game for that to produce symptoms. Dehydration, OTOH, is the #1 cause of nausea.
