I had my sleeve on March 5th. For the past 2 weeks I have had nausea after eating. It lasts for about a hour. I am eating solid food now and not over eating. Any ideas what could be causing this???

Maybe you are eating to fast, or the foods you are eating are not sitting well with you. I would try eating slower, make sure you chew really really well, and maybe try different foods for a bit, see if that helps. Good luck!

I am having trouble eating slowly. Hard to change life long habits. Lol. I have also tried other foods. Still nauseated. Thanx for the ideas.

I know, it is really hard to eat slowly. Like you said it's a life time of being told to hurry up and eat, to suddenly now, it's the slower the better! The best way i've found to help me is to watch the clock, and i'll let myself take a bite every 2 min, and i try to chew really slow. it is hard though, and plenty of times i still eat to fast, and pay for it =(

If it is happening only with dense solid foods then you may want to try less dense foods for,a while like Greek yogurt.

You may want to talk to your doctor about adding reglan which will help,with nausea and help the food to go through a little faster. This is added sometimes at the beginning as your body is still having some swelling and still trying to figure out how to transit food

Try chewing some papaya enzyme. Works great for digestion.

      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.
