  1. Help! I am 2 months out and never had any nausea or vomiting until now! I haven't been able to eat or drink. I went to the ER yesterday and they ran all kinds of tests and found nothing. I do have an EGD scheduled in a couple weeks. They want to see if my sleeve is too tight, etc.

    My husband has the sleeve August 25 and he's doing great! He can drink more fluids than I ever could and he's only a week out!

    They did restart me on nausea meds and increased the frequency. I am back on Clear liquids.

    Anyone else have these issues all of a sudden after 2 months?!!

  2. Everyone's journey and post op plan is different and we must take that into account. We are here to support each other, not make people feel ignorant for asking a question or to insult people. We all have downfalls, if we didn't we all would not have been in the position to have to have surgery. So instead of offering insults, offer some suggestions or ideas to help get through those tough times. Not everyone is a nutrition expert and I find it funny how many people have their own myths and beliefs about nutrition. As a Registered Dietitian who has had the sleeve, I can honestly say that most people do not have a good idea of what healthy meals or foods would consist of, appropriate portion sizes, or even what macro and micro nutrients are....as an RD I don't make my patients feel foolish, I use it as a baseline to provide education, etc. So I would ask that when we are in these forums we should have patience, empathy, and share positive ideas instead of all this negativity. This is horrible! We are all in the same situation, not one of us is better than the other. It's not a matter of how far post op you are, how much you lost, who ate crackers and who didn't...we ALL were obese at one point and we ALL need to remember that!
