I Bought all my Vitamins from Bariatric Advantage. I got the calcium citrate chewy bite I'm suppose to take

3times a day...I can't even take 1,they make me nauseous. My Protein Shake don't taste good I've tried a few

Different ones. My Multivitamin is not to bad of a taste. Now even Water taste bad. Such I get over the counter

Vitamins? Maybe they will taste better? Today I'm 3weeks out and next week I can start soft foods I'm hoping

They taste better. Is anyone else having this problem?

I feel your pain. Nothing tastes good and Protein shakes make me gag. I am on soft foods now but I can't stomach them either.

Hang in there! I found that everything tasted bad for a month of two following my surgery. Nothing tasted right and even food smells made me nauseous. Gradually your taste will improve some, though I am still a picky eater. Try hard to get your Vitamins and Calcium in, especially since eating enough while you're healing is so difficult. Things will get better...

Update: I'm not having any Protein Drinks because they all taste horrible. Does any one know if there is a calcium citrate gum mike Vitamin? I can't take my Calcium chewable bite ...yucky. I barely take my multivitamin and I love my probiotic vitamin.

I'm only drinking Water and juicy juice and I'm not hungry. I will call my doctor tomorrow

Three weeks out and Protein drinks are starting to make me nauseous. I made it with milk today instead of Water and it didn't stay down. Maybe that's what did it.

I can't take the Protein drinks either, and I have not been able to take my Vitamins either. It has been all I can do to make sure I take my medication in the morning and at night.

      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.
