10 weeks in an nausea all the time? Help



Recommended Posts

I'm 10 weeks in to my Gastric Bypass, after a failed Lapband. I have had a big problem finding food I can eat and getting the required Protein. I was 379 lbs at my surgery and I'm already down to 301 lbs. Which is awesome for me, but Protein Shakes make me vomit almost right away after 6 weeks of nothing but the shakes.(2 weeks before surgery and 4 weeks after) I thought I could get protein from fish and shakes but can't seem to get them down, and stay down? Small slices of cheese along with a couple crackers and Peanut Butter are almost a daily staple. As is very thin deli sliced lunch meat. I had a florascope and everything looks good? When I get hungry, I get nausea and after I eat I get nausea. I throw up about 50% of what I eat. I guess it's dumping syndrome cause I get alot of hot flashes right before I get sick. I tried GNC for other options but spent alot of money on stuff that didn't work? Did anyone have these issues? And any recommendations on food that is easy to keep down? Fish,eggs and milk have been very hard for me so far? My blood work was all good but low in Iron which I take a med for now. I can deal with not eating much, but I'm miserable being nauseous all the time. I've had my Dr. Give me scripts to ease feeling nauseous but nothing seems to work? Thanks for any light y'all can shed on my issues!

What does your doctor say? I don't think you should be that nauseous at 10 weeks and you shuld be able to eat at least 6oz per meal. I don't know what a florascope is. I am going into my seventh week and starting regular foods on Monday and I am happy to say I have only thrown up twice when something was stuck. Have you tried chewing three papaya enzymes after ypu eat? It helps your food from getting stuck and helps with digestion. They are perfectly safe.

      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.
