Feel like poop - day 13 post op



Recommended Posts

Man, for the last few weeks I've felt great and today it's been bad. I woke up and started taking my Vitamins (all liquid) and I couldn't stomach them. I tried a little Water and that didn't help and next thing I knew I was dry heaving over the toilet! My heart was beating out of my chest... And I was dizzy. We are on a road trip so I knew staying in was not an option. We went out shopping and my body was just dragging... I'm on zero calories! I got some water down (4 oz) and a little Soup (3 oz) and zero desire to have anything else.

Has anyone experienced this? I'm so weak but no pain.

Thx everyone.

Karee

Can you do chewable vitamins? I can do 4 flintstones or I went and got chewables from GNC but now I am doing the gummies....go down a lot easier than liquid (yuck!).

I am on day 12. Yesterday was the first time I felt queasy. Even though today is better, the Protein Drink (all I am allowed to have besides Water until Monday) looks like an insurmountable obstacle to me. I have cried a couple of times today. My body feels sluggish and my brain feels dull. I am hoping that when I can eat something, I will feel more normal.

Gosh that's me too. I'm waiting for different Protein powder to arrive Monday as everything I've tried is so sweet it makes me sick. I've tried Special K protein water and the artificial sweetener almost made me gag.

I'm sipping water now but know that living on 30 calories is not ok. I don't know what to do though. I'm miserable right now.

      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.
