  3. So...... as I have stated in several previous topics, I have been nauseated since I left the hospital 5 weeks ago. I have been taking chewable bariatric vitamins everyday, twice a day. I was halso having nausea from morning to night. This pass Tuesday I did not take my vitamin because I was already having a issue with taste and I just could not stand the the thought of chewing one up so I skipped it for 2 days. I WAS NOT NAUSEATED ON TUES AND WED! Not thinking I took my vitamin yesterday and I was sick all day. I FOUND THE CULPRIT! So now I am on a hunt for a new vitamin. I was taking my vitamin after I eat so I was not taking it on a empty stomach by the way. Anyway just want you to give you a update! Any suggestions on what you take would be very helpful. Thanks!
  4. Wow thanks for the variation in food, now I have some ideals and I feel so much better about what I am doing, I have been stuck on nasty shakes and I am in the soft food stage.
  5. Question: I have asked this question before but I need to rephrase it. I'm 4 weeks today, and I can only get 1/4 cup of anything in, so again I ask, How do you get your protein in when your only allowed 3 meals a day if a shake is not included in the mix. Please explain to me because I hate cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, refried beans, scambled eggs and plan cheese. I do not like the taste of shakes.
  6. I think I failed to mention that my senses are all missed up, everything taste bad and everything stinks. i cant food cooking or the smell from packaged stuff or can stuff being opened. I have tried multiple powder proteins including unjury and the smell is over the top for me. I'm going to be a lost cause and hell I probably will loss my hair I am so discouraged.
  7. Thanks, I'm going out to get some fish today. Do you eat crackers with yout chicken and tuna salad, My Nut said it was ok, I am just scared, heck i scared to put anything in my mouth. The Nut said that I have performance anxiety. Who would have thunk it? LOL
  8. Hi everyone, today is 3 weks for me, I am very skeotical about starting the soft foods because everything that I eat does not tast like food. Maybe it was because it was pureed, I dont know. I do not like the greek yogurt because it tast like sour cream, I do not like rocotta cheese cheese at all, so I'm afraid that it will be hard to get my protein in. I am out of ideals and I really need help. Although I do not vomit when I eat the puree meals, I think that i am just disgusted after the 4-5 bits and I am just nauseated for hours. I am also only getting in 375 calories I need to get to 500. HELP PLEASE! oh and I am not getting in my calicum liquid or chewables, I can not get past the taste. What are you using?
  9. Thanks Star and Tracey, it has been really tough and I know that it will get better. I get to start puree's today and I am so imtimadated about putting something more than something to drink in my mouth, hell, the liquids scare me because of the fesr of pain. I'm trying t take it one day at a time, just struggling in the process. I have been crying and praying at the same time pretty much nonstop.
  10. I am not getting in my 64 ounces of water or my protein, also, I'm having a hard time with these vitamins. I'm 2 weeks out and can only take 1 sipp every 7 minutes. If I try to do more I am in extreme pain. I feel as though I am not progressing and I am very frustrated. Although my Doc said it was to early to think this way, I am frequently asking myself, what have I done?
