Cant eat and not gettin enough protein..

[zoeonelove 17]

So i was sleeved on December 11th, 2013 and I'm 5 weeks out now and on my soft food stage, but these past few days I haven't been able to eat anything! My taste buds and stomach want nothing to do with food, everything I eat makes me nauseous and gag also every Protein Drink I try does the same thing! Luckily since I got my surgery I have had no problems with drinking liquids (beside the Protein drinks) I can drink pretty fast too, and I have been taking my Vitamins. I'm going to call my doctor tomorrow but I'm wondering if anyone else has gone through this as well?

After the 1st week post-op, I never had any nausea or problems keeping food down. That 1st week, everything made me sick and I was only tolerating a teaspoon or 2 of food every few hours.

My 1st 6 months, I was very limited on the foods I could eat. I couldn't tolerate much of anything other than re-fried Beans and cream of mushroom Soup for that time.

I see this topic posted a lot, so it must be pretty common and eventually lessens and goes away. Stay focused on getting your liquids in.

Around 4-5 weeks, I was just like you..I at a few bites of mashed potatoes, a bite of tuna salad or egg salad..that was it...no Protein shakes..uck..but now a 8 weeks, I don't have a problem with anything, I even like shakes again...Its weird how your stomach can effect everything...
