Feeling nausea before eating?



Recommended Posts

Hey, I had my surgery 06/06/17 and I was feeling fine then. Now when I wake up and don't eat solids for an hour (Focusing on Protein shakes) I will get nauseas to the point of being very close to puking on an empty stomach, even if I don't eat for an hour.

Does anybody have this? It has made me feel very clammy before too.

I guess I don't understand your timing. You wake up and drink a Protein Shake? Or don't have anything at all for an hour...

I am usually either getting ready for the day or running to get my mail from my parent's place once I wake up. I eat when I grab food from places or come home and fix up food. I try to drink my Protein Shakes first, though even if I drink my Protein shakes and don't eat solids as I am full from the shakes, it still makes me nauseous for some reason.

Sometimes Protein Shakes don't agree with us (and early on, things can change from agreeing to disagreeing and vice versa).

So it could be the shake causing it. Try having something else in the morning to see if it improves.

If I drink unsweetened tea on an empty stomach (even preop), I get nauseous.

Just try different things, and if it continues, regardless of what you do, contact your doc.

Good luck!

      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.
