Hey guys, had surger on 4/10. Had trouble getting liquids in and throwing up. I was feeling very weak. Went to the ER on Sunday and they admitted me and I was just released today. Got some IVs in me. Still have trouble with throwing up some. Medicine never helped with that. The medicine always comes back up. I have found that warm tea helps to settle my stomach. I can't progress to the full liquids yet. Oh well, at least I am feeling somewhat better. I just want to make sure the throwing up stops!

I found in the beginning warm liquids went down easier. I'm 4 months out and still takes longer to get cold liquids down. For some reason warm is easy

I'm so sorry you are having a hard time. You might want to get some powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup to get some Protein in for when you are ok to proceed. Also, I used to add heated milk to my chocolate Protein shake and drink it like hot cocoa, it went down much easier and I got about 35 grams of Protein in an 8oz. cup.

Best of luck to you!! feel better.

      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.
