I had tons of nausea and still do. I take Zofran sublingual. I had to test many Protein Shakes before I could find ones that I could tolerate post-op. I went to vitalady.com and ordered samples. I found I don't tolerate chocolate or vanilla milk type Protein shakes which is what you find at places like Walmart. I use Syntrax Nectar juice flavored (kiwi-strawberry) and unjury.com has chicken broth which is awesome. I also used chicken broth as my savior the first few weeks when I felt nauseous I would sip on it and it was liquid and keep my hydrated. I know Unjury also has a unflavored that people put into things to help boost protein content.. First call your doctor and ask for some Zofran...

I have to use Levasin. Zofran didn't help me. My nausea and vomiting was due to espoigial and stomach spams. So if zofran dosen't work for ya. It might be something like that.

      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.
