I can't eat without getting sick



Recommended Posts

I will be 11 weeks post op on Monday, and I have trouble eating. Everything I eat makes me sick. Even just a few bites. I'm so tired of drinking Protein Drinks and Water. I just want to be able to have regular food. Is this normal at this point, or should I seek medical advice from my doctor? I can't even eat a few bites of chicken without getting sick. Help!

I'm still on the first week but I have heard of this happening. I would try to go to very mushy baby food consistency for a while. Your pouch may not be able take anything more right now.

That's been my experience so far as well. My doc has urged me to keep trying to incorporate more food into my diet. It's a slow process. Hang in there.

I am just over a week since my surgery, and my whey Protein drinks are making my so sick too. Any suggestions? Anyone tried shakeology?

If it were me, I would call my surgeon. In the meantime, go back to things that are easy on your stomach. Mashed potato, pureed Soup, mashed avocado, yogurt, pudding, scrambled eggs.

I wish I could eat scrambled eggs. They make me sick too! :(

Same thing happened to me around same time. It was a stricture. Call your surgeon and get them to do an EGD.
