Had such a good day outside with my kids today felt great. That is until I came in and drank a Protein Shake. Now I feel like crap..nauseous and crampy like diarrhea is on the horizon. I barely eat. I don't want to. No matter what it is it makes me feel yucky. I've been thru 6 different Protein Shakes. I'm 4 weeks out tomorrow and I feel like food is the devil! I'm starting to really regret this surgery.

I can eat cottage cheese really good with peaches or apples (fresh). My husband bought me the brookstone cottage cheese with pinneapples and after 1 or 2 bites - instant dumping syndrome for about 3 hours! I have found organic gluten cheese puff that melts in your month that I can hold down but it isn't Protein. Also try pickles - not the hard part on the back it works out great for me too. Homemade oatmeal - not the instant kind.

I felt the same exact way as you do now! The thought of food made me sick to my stomach! I forced myself to eat but right afterward I would get extremely nausious and wanted to throw up! To be truthful it took me almost 13 weeks postop to get over this! I'm only 15 weeks postop so it hasn't been that long ago & remember it as of it were yesterday! Force yourself to eat (even if it's a byte) and definitely push the fluids! I promise it will pass but unfortunately it will take a while!! Good Luck!!

I had issues of feeling nauseated and like I wanted to throw up, mine started about 2 weeks after surgery, zofran helped very little, turns out I had to be scoped and my opening had scared down and was causing the problem. Deff check with your doctor!

The doctor gave me carafate, and told me to take Prilosec for 3 months. Hopefully it will help.

      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.
