Problems



Recommended Posts

Ok - so I know this may be normal- but I have started getting really nauseated when others eat- I don't know- like wow -are you really going to shove all that in your mouth- I don't know if I am just jealous- cause I want to too- or it's really making me sick to my stomach- my husband is the worst- he is 6'2" and 200lbs and to me he is thin and eats like a garbage disposal -anyway- my other issue

I really get upset cause I just want to eat "normal" again- not really normal- just whatever- I am only a month out- but I am still having to eat mostly shakes and liquid cause I am so nausated all the time- yes my doctor has given me several medicines- I just can't handle it- any suggestions- besides pull up my big girl panties- cause I am really yanking on them and its not working out so well lol.

Thanks,

Tina

Tina,

Sorry to hear about your trouble. I have not had sleeve yet so I can't really speak to that side of it....

One suggestion might be talking to your husband....Mine eats like a garbage disposal as well and I had to sit down with him and say look, I know I am doing this for me but this is a lifestyle change for "us" and our babies future. I can not have you eating that stuff in front of me because of the temptation. so far.... he has been pretty receptive. I don't really see him eating "bad" stuff in front of me.. He is probably scarfing down little debbie's in his car or something lol but at least it is not in front of me!

Hang in there!

Tina,

I can feel your pain, kind of... I am currently scheduled for my surgery on 06/22/11 and already I feel a little nauseated after I see my husband eat, I think its the anticipation of knowing what I can and can't do anymore. I suggest speaking with your husband, thats all you can do. Hope it gets better soon! I have faith that it will! :D

      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.
