Just had my surgery two days ago, and I'm feeling so nauseous. Can hardly keep anything down. How long before you felt somewhat human again?

You might also try a hot sugar free apple cider by alpine. It has warmed me up quite nicely' date=' with the heat radiating from stomach outward. It is very low cal also.[/quote']

Love this too!

Had my surgery on 9/10. Just had totally regular hot chocolate (not sugar free or fat free). Made it with 1/2 Water and 1/2 skim milk. I had a fairly low calorie day and decided to splurge. It was great and no bad effects. Won't make it a habit but I see absolutely nothing wrong with occasionally enjoying something like that. It was a total of 155 calories.

I have hot oveltine many nights to make my Protein goal. It's less sugar than normal hot chocolate and tastes lovely. I refuse REFUSE to drink protein chocolate at night time. Ok day time mostly as well....but my night time treat is just that, a treat, and with non fat milk it's high enough in protein and yet does not have that icky Protein Drink flavor!

Hi,

It will probably be a couple days but it will pass. It takes time for the anesthesia to leave your system and your body to adjust to the changes. if it lasts a week or gets worse, I'd call your your surgeon.

      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.
