Can't Eat Anything



Recommended Posts

I just had my second fill this past Monday. I have not been able to eat anything since then. When I try to eat something, I just throw it back up and I will keeping throwing up. Is there anything anyone can suggest that I need to do or what to try to eat?

i want a tickler, can't seem to get one. well i'

ve been in your shoes, u are too restricted, and u are just going to have to wait it out. sip on hot liquids very slowly and don't try to force anything down and if you are stressed out it doesn't help,get away from the stress. just take everything slow and overtime the restriction will go away.

I think you double posted this. You need a slight unfill. If you can stay hydrated it can wait through the weekend. If not call your surgeon's office # to speak with his service. Being a long weekend (if your surgeon observes Presidents' Day) is a long time to wait if you are not getting liquids down.

By this time, you should be able to eat solid Proteins. Since you can't, do thin Protein shakes and all liquids until you can be seen so that you can stay hydrated. I'd always rather see my surgeon than go to an ER for an unfill. But if you can't get liquids down, you might not have a choice, but always call your surgeon's office first for instruction.

Possible ! You might have started eating to soon, and you could just be swollen.

If you want to find out. Stay on fluids only tell about Monday evening,

then try some mushies. If it goes down, then you know it was swelling.

If it's a No go ! Then call your Dr. for a slight unfil.

Shirley.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
