Today is two weeks post op and I feel sick half of the day everyday. Most of the time it's in the morning but, today I did something different. I took my meds at night instead of the morning and I had a yogurt instead of a Protein shake for Breakfast and I felt like a million bucks! But now I feel like sick. I'm not throwing up or anything but my head is dizzy and I have a headache. What am I doing wrong? I want to feel great all day or is it just to soon for that?

How is your hydration? Being dehydrated can make you feel sick, nauseated, weak, headache and even dizzy if it gets bad enough.

The most difficult thing for us WLS patients is to stay hydrated. Are you getting 64oz of fluids?

That could be what is causing your symptoms. I know it is hard, I had a hard time for the first month but once I was able to get fluids in me, I immediately got my energy back too.

It was about 7 weeks before I started feeling myself.

Best of luck to you!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
