I am 3 weeks out from DS. I vomited today for the first time. I know I ate too fast. I still feel nauseous and I don't want to eat anything. Can only get 4 ounces of my shake down where as yesterday I could drink the whole thing. Is this normal?? Anyone have experience with this? Thanks in advance.

After I eat something that makes me sick.....I cannot eat anything else for a couple of days. It is like my stomach is irritated.... and I have to go back on liquid. I am eight weeks out and still have trouble eating. I may eat one day and it may be five days or longer before I can eat again. I have been able to eat a whole poached egg once?

Are you on solid foods now? You may need to go back on soft foods, like soft scrambled eggs with lots of butter...

Soft is all that I eat and Protein Drinks. I cannot handle solid foods at all and some days can't handle food period. I haven't been able to eat eggs. I ate a whole poached egg once..... Usually after a couple of bites I can tell it is not going to stay down.

I am on soft solids. I'm doing really well if I set the timer on my phone for 30 minutes and space out my portion accordingly. I usually wait between 2-3 minutes per small bite. I'm doing tuna fish, meatloaf, moist chicken and as long as I chew well I've been ok. My problem was I went to a restaurant for the first time and with talking I didn't pay attention and I took too big of a bite and didn't chew enough. I must say I didn't eat anything else the rest of the day but today I was fine. This is a huge life change! For the better but still need to practice.

      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.
