Nausea after 2 years... (specifically diary/drink related)



Recommended Posts

So I'm 2 years out from gastric sleeve surgery. Last year I started eating carbs again and got way off track. I posted about this back at the end of December and I'm still trying to work the kinks out, since I have been on-and-off doing well with getting back into the healthy lifestyle that I LIVED BY before reintroducing carbs. I know that I can do it I've just been having trouble keeping myself from falling back into old habits.

I've recently noticed that I almost always get sick when I drink/eat anything dairy-based AND sweetened. Whether the sweetener is artificial (no sugar added hot chocolate or Protein shakes) or real (like one serving of ice cream on a cheat day). I get the sweats, that feeling of shakiness or general unease, and finally unignorable nausea until I just have to just run to the bathroom and give up.

This is not something I've ALWAYS suffered from. Especially with the Protein Shakes since I drank them regularly for at least the first six moths or so. I think this happens more often with powdered protein mixes than it does with the pre-made Premier Protein shakes though, for whatever that's worth. I keep telling myself it may because I just drink it too fast, but I am not so sure anymore.

I have almost a full case of premiere protein (which I think I'll TRY keep and just drink verrrry slowly) and a brand new container of EAS Lean 15 Protein Powder. Not sure I'll ever be able to finish that if every time I make a shake I get sick.

At this point, I'm just ready to give up on protein supplements period. I am trying to maintain a high fat/protein and low carb diet (basically Keto, but modified for WLS and my protein requirements) so I definitely feel like I get enough protein anyway without the supplements. I don't know.

I'm really just writing this because I'm curious if anyone else has experienced the same thing.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
