Green Zone But Throwing Up.....



Recommended Posts

Ok It seems I may be too tight. I can not eat too much but I throw up or have chest pains when I eat. Can not make it to the Dr today or tomarrow. Any advice on what to eat or do till I can go?

Firstly make sure you are actually taking tiny bites and chewing well. Wait for one minute between bites. If you are still having troubles, determine if it is the type of food you are trying to eat- you may be trying something that is not a good fit.

If you still can't eat properly, drink Protein Shakes til you can get in.

It can take up to two weeks for fill to take effect. Sounds like you need a small unfil.

      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.
