Two Months Out...........

[Dondie Olivia 56]

I've hit week 8 and have been in a stall for about 3 weeks. Truly annoying. I haven't gained, yet haven't lost. Now for the real reason for this post.

Today, for the first time since I woke up from surgery, I had nausea. Completely out of the blue. Had a Protein Bar for Breakfast with some Water and Decaf coffee. I haven't felt this bad in what seems like forever. My empathy to those who go through this every day. I was hoping I would throw up just to feel better. Sheesh kabob. It's beginning to ease off, however I still feel somewhat icky.

Any suggestions to ease this?

A Couple thoughst:

1- If you drank the fluids with the Protein bar this could be the problem. I always wait at least 1/2 hour to drink anything after eating a solid food.

2- I found if I take any Vitamins or prilosec at night I wake up feeling a little yuck.

3- Try to have a evening snack around 8 or 9 like a LF string cheese. If your blood sugar gets low during the night this can cause nausea in the morning.

Hope you feel better!

Definitely agree with kittenheart's #1. I am 3 years out and I still have to respect the "no liquids 1/2 hr before or after eating" guideline. So if you consumed all 3 at same time, it could be a cause for the upset. Assuming Protein bar had less than 5gm of sugar; otherwise, maybe too much sugar could have contributed to nausea too on your empty morning stomach.

And. . . stalls happen, no matter what. Just keep focusing on following your eating plan--more than on the number on the scale-- and it will move again. No need to worry.
