Normal To Feel Nauseous After First Workout?



Recommended Posts

So I'm two weeks and 4 days post op from my sleeve and today was my first day at the gym. I did 20 minutes on the elliptical and have been feeling so nauseous ever since I left the gym. I have been having bad problems with nausea ever since I've has the sleeve but this came out of no where. Is this normal to experience?

How much elliptical did you do pre-sleeve? It might be a little early to be doing that kind of workout unless you were really used to it beforehand. Drink some Water and rest and see if things calm down. You also should call your doctor. There are meds they can give you to help with the nausea. :)

You may be trying to do too much too soon. Start out slow. Do some walking normal walking. Make sure you are getting in enough fluids. My dr told me not to get too involved on working out for at least 6 weeks because my body is trying to adjust to everything. I hope the nausea will ease up for you.

If you are nauseated after working out you are dehydrated.

Or have low blood sugar

      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.
