Hi. I had my sleeve done nov 12 and now i am at four weeks and to be eating soft foods but its not working out well... puree baby food is a breeze,protein shakes are ok and cottage cheese good. Crackers and melba toast are ok most times but eggs no good....tuna no good. Painfull and dsnt sit right. Now the Vitamins make me nauseous. I feel i am going backwards. ..anyone else feel this way? What did u do to overcome? Also ravenous at bedtime and first thing in the morning...

Sounds like you need a PPI like omeprazole/prilosec and perhaps something for nausea. Call your doctor.

Try taking and anti nausea pill before? Maybe you can get some things to coat your stomach like sucralfate from your doctor? But trial and error was the best thing I could do.. It just takes time. But you will get there!

I agree it may be something along the lines of heartburn. The only time I ever felt truly hungry was when I needed to adjust my heartburn meds. But also, eggs did take me a while to be able to stomach.

      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.
