I'm just over a year post op. Nausea has been a problem since day 1. You will find it is caused by mostly trapped wind in the early days and also lack of energy. I found sipping a warm cup of tea and sucking mints and moving about helped me . Now it is mostly caused by eating too quickly. The best advice I can give is try your very best to learn new eating habits. Drink as much as you can slowly and constantly during the day. And eat slowly and chew everything into a pulp before swallowing. If you are waking feeling sick get up move about and make yourself a warm drink it helps. Then get back into bed.
I year out and I've lost 7 stone. Even with all the odd issues I've had along the way. This op has given me control and my life back. I can now eat a bowl of Cereal for Breakfast . A small sandwich for lunch and a small meal for tea. I can eat most things. I year out and it's about making healthy choices. If I don't I simply gain weight.
I wish you all the best. It's not easy but worth every bit of effort you use to make changes.

      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.
