12 days post op = struggling



Recommended Posts

I have been sick to my stomach all day. Can't get through 6oz of Protein Shake without feeling terrible. I have PCOS and primarily stuck with whole eating seasonal and organic. My stomach is having a hard time with all of this fake food. I haven't had Jello in a decade same with pudding. I don't eat cream of chicken Soup from a can. I've made my own broth which helped a bit, but mostly I feel terrible. I can stomach popsicles and Water. My 3 week post op is this Wednesday. I am switching to soft foods and hoping this phase will go better. Anyone else dealing with this??

Yeah, so I've lived off of milk and home made broth. Tomorrow I start purees in earnest, and that will go much better! I've been lucky to not be sick, probably because I didn't push all those fake things. Oh, and Siggies drinkable yogurt or kieffer is da bomb.

Try not to worry or get frustrated. It used to take me 2 hours to drink each Protein Shake and that's normal. I bought 1oz medicine cups off Amazon and used to pour my drinks into those to make sure I was drinking slowly. When I got to purée I made my own meats and broths and borrowed a friends vitamix to purée it very smooth. I also liked part skin ricotta (mixed with a bit of Water if you like it thinner/creamier. I lived off those things for awhile. It will get better, your body is healing. Good luck!
