I threw up every hour on the hour and of course I'm that girl that when she throws up she also pees. It sucked! All I tasted was blood and bile for the whole week! Best of luck and keep us posted:)

Just curious if the ones who threw up had the patch? I thought it was supposed to help nausea! It worked for me and I didn't get a Migraine either. Started to, but warned the nurse and she got the ok to infuse another med. it worked.

Had my sleeve on the 18th of April . I'm trying to do 3 Protein Shakes a day. Trying to drink slowly. Cheated and had 2 yogurts. Small stony fields yogurt . Also had the broth and a tablespoon of ramen noodles. My tummy just rumbles and makes crazy noises. I'm using a heating pad cause my left side feels a little sore. So do I continue Protein shakes and Clear Liquids this week? Still have diarrhea , but only at night. I'm starting to think that the yogurt is giving me the diarrhea . I'll weigh in tomorrow .

I'm sorry that some people have nausea. I was given zofran and I never got sick. I hope everyone feels better!

Sorry to hear. I have nausea pills that the doc gave me to take proactively. Do you think maybe Prilosec or nexium would help? Fingers crossed for you!

Strongly recommend Nexium, Protonix, Prilosec, or something comparable for post-surgery.

Birdie, THREE Protein Shakes a day? THREE?!? How? I'm lucky to get one down over the course of a day. I balance them with cream Soups made with double milk. Managing to meet my Protein requirements that way.

My dr has me on full liquids for three weeks. Then, purée. Can't wait. I can have scrambled eggs on the purée diet!

I can only get about 4 ounces of Protein a day. I am having a really hard time getting more than 4 grams if protein. Also in the hospital I was on so many different nausea meds at once. I had the patch, a shot, and something in my I.V. I stayed on all 3 for 3 days.

Be sure not to take in to much Protein if your not active enough for your body to burn it. If you are very active then that much is great. I'm back to walking 8 miles a day do I try to make sure I get 70-80g protein daily, also if you are not able to get that much down at once, blend a tablespoon of penut butter in it and that will add a boost to the protein

      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.
