Ok so I am just a little over 8 weeks out. Up until a few days ago I had no nausea what so ever. I felt great. Recently I have been feeling nauseous fairly often and especially around meal times. When I look at my food choices my stomach flips the. After I eat I just feel icky. The food goes down just fine. I measure out my meals, follow the guidelines set by my NUT and doctor, low sugar, all that. What's going on?

This may be a stupid question but are you sure you dont have a bug? I'm just wondering because everything for me, feeling full etc feels so different than it used to that I would think a stomach virus would feel weird too!

I hadn't thought of that. I guess it's possible but I don't have any other symptoms.

I've had stomach viruses where I really only had an upset stomach. If you arent having any other problems hopefully it will go away in a few days! I think everything is going to feel different for me. I hope you feel better soon, nausea just sucks.

I started feeling this way at 5wks out. I didn't realize it but was having bad acid reflux- it didn't feel like before surgery when I knew I had reflux! But I increased my protonix (antacid med) to twice a day and have felt so much better! I thought since we had less acid in our pouches I wouldn't have to worry about it but guess not. You may try it and talk to your doctor. I can eat and drink without pain!

      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.
