Did you find certain foods made you nauseous after the band?



Recommended Posts

I was banded on Oct 19th and I'm on Phase III- my Dr said I could try egg salad. I'm currently in what could only be described as Bandster Hell (hungry yet no restriction and nothing gets stuck) but I'm dealing with it pretty well. I tried the egg salad 4 days ago. I used to love egg salad pre-band. It made me fairly nauseous the other day. I thought it might be because I hadn't had any fats in so long. (I made it with low fat mayo- I hate the fat free kind). I tried it again today and same thing. I had about 2 Tablespoons and became nauseous. Now common sense says to just not have it anymore and I probably won't for a long time. But I find it odd that I would have that reaction. It's not like the band is something hormonal and would cause a reaction like pregnancy to morning sickness. Just wondering if anyone else has had any similar reactions to food they used to like, but now they get nauseous from them. Thanks.

I have tried eggs twice since being banded and both times had problems. I have accepted the fact that I just can not have eggs.

Yeah - I'm the same... no eggs for me now :w00t:

I adored egg before surgery, now it REALLY makes me feel ill, and if I DO eat it (like I did out of politeness once when a friend invited me for my (old) favourite lunch - Ommelette) I get gripes in my stomach and then whoooooooooooosh, I need to run to the loo, and not for being sick!!!!

I steer well clear now!

      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.
