txdogmom 30 Posted November 4, 2014 I finally have the green light to eat pureed and soft foods but I'm really struggling. Anything I eat - outside of Protein Drinks - I throw up. I thought maybe I was eating too much or maybe too fast so I weighted out 2 oz of rotisserie chicken and pulsed it in my Ninja. I took 10 minutes to eat it. Still no go. What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions on things to try? Is this normal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haleytrim 244 Posted November 4, 2014 What about your liquids? I've heard that you will get really nauseas if you are getting dehydrated. I am anxious to hear from some of the vets on this as it is a concern of mine. I have what my family would call a weak stomach, so I worry about nausea when I have my surgery. I will be watching for your solution too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
txdogmom 30 Posted November 5, 2014 I'm drinking 2-3 of the Premier Protein shakes a day so that is 60-90 g of Protein and 22-33 oz of Fluid. Plus 24 oz of Water with mio. I'm trying to go to real food and just get to one Protein Shake a day but its been hard. I used to love cottage cheese but I can't stand it now. I was able to eat a little unsweetened applesauce - so that is a small victory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tpompey 1 Posted November 8, 2014 I'm 2 weeks post op....and I throw up at least once a day. I'm sick of it. My doctor told me not to eat chicken unless it was in a can because other chicken may be too dry. I would say nausea is normal as the body is adjusting.

gruiz27 218 Posted November 8, 2014 I had nausea for 2 months. And in and out of the ER for IVs weekly. everything was okay. So I think it's just everyone's body is different. But it does get better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
