Feeling Nauseated by Regular Food

[TheMoxieMama 47]

I'm 2 months out post-op and while I do fine with Protein Shakes like CORE Power 24 gram (usually chocolate, and Protein Bars like Quest, I find myself constantly getting nauseated by regular food. Anyone else experience this? Any tips? Thanks!

p.s. Otherwise, I'm doing well and happy with my weight loss, even though there is a tiny part of me that sometimes thinks my progress is too slow. Lol

Multi Vitamins can make you nauseous. I spread mine out over the day & made sure I had them after I ate. Also, some people have trouble with lactose post surgery. At the best it can make you nauseous. At the worst it will go right through you. Many experience changes to their taste buds making previously enjoyed foods totally unpalatable. Some also find the smell of some foods turn them right off.

Have a chat with your surgical team & your dietician. You should be able to eat regular food now.

Congrats on your surgery.

Thank you, Arabesque. I have a feeling you are spot on about the multi-vitamins and the lactose. And, yes, indeed, my taste buds have changed. I will call my team,/dietician.
