I am so sorry you are going through this. It sounds awful. Are you eating slowly and chewing thoroughly? I hope others on this site and your doctor can help you.

I am one year and almost 9 months post-op and this happens to me all the time. I never puke blood though, but other than that I have comparable issues. As an example, I've been eating quinoa sticks this week and randomly today they made me supremely sick. Some days I will be able to eat a few pieces of sushi, other days it makes me barf almost instantly. I have a few foods that have always been safe, like Tomato based Soups, marinara, some crackers, etc, but I think at some point almost everything has randomly made me sick. There isn't anything medically wrong with me- my stomach just hates food.

I was initially concerned that I may end up eating too little, however I've learned to enjoy both the good and the bad food days because they always balance out. Some days I can pack away 1500 calories and other days, like today, I'm struggling on 500-800. My irritable stomach keeps me skinny so I don't complain about it too much. :)

      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.
