This sounds more life food poisoning to me... when I have "dumped" it's been within 10 minutes of eating something and it never involves vomiting. I hope you feel better soon! ?

I usually add pumpkin Pie Spices or extract to my shakes.< /p>
I need to try the Torani one. I like their other flavors.

Some of my favorite meals early on included: rotisserie chicken (cause it's so moist), frozen broccoli microwaved to real soft, canned green Beans cause they were soft too, fish (fish is THE BEST!) and doesn't much matter what kind, mashed cauliflower with butter, yogurt of course, eggs and omlettes, oatmeal (only need 1 pack), chicken and egg salad mixed together for extra Protein, zucchini and squash (yum), 1/4 of a turkey Subway sandwich, and for dessert ice pops, pudding, and those little sherbet cups and of course FRUIT!!!

Thank you all for all the advice and encouragement. I am going to try to not have so much Gatorade because I know of how much sugar there is. I am going to try warm Water and see how my pouch takes it. Right now cold water won't help. I am worrying more about my liquids than Protein, and just sipping every so often.

I am having a harder time with liquids, I am trying Gatorade and crystal light to meet my requirement because it's hard for me to get just Water in.
I did puree the chicken with a little low fat mayo but I think my pouch wasn't having it. I am concentrating so hard on Protein intake that I don't think I am concentrating enough on liquids.

So I am a little more than 2 weeks post op on pureed food phase and today I just don't feel good. I had my drain removed a week postop and I've been feeling pain on that side. If I sit too long it hurts, and it's uncomfortable. Yesterday I tried pureed chicken again, and my pouch was not happy. I am not throwing up, but just gagging over the toilet while nothing comes out (TMI). I was nauseous again this morning and now a little better. I have been sipping on some crystal light. I just feel right now so horrible. I am overwhelmed with emotions, and with this pain on my side and I feel like it's neverending. Please pass some words of encouragement, thank you.

That's a good idea I will try this! Thanks

Thank you for sharing I will be trying this. ????

I wanted to share with you, i have been having issues with getting Protein in. SO i was suggested to try GENEPRO which is not only flavorless it is actually TASTELESS. You add only 1 Tablespoon and get 30 grams protein and it has no taste. I actually love this stuff. Mix it in tea, coffee, chocolate milk and you wont taste it. It was definitely worth the money and AMAZING. just thought i would share with you all!

I had surgery on the 7/11 and was supposed to have my post op on 7/19 but didn't make it cuz I ended up back in hospital.. But long story short I had it today so a little over two weeks.. But I'm down 27lbs.. I notice it in my legs and arms and face but barely in my stomach area even tho I notice it in the way my clothes fit.. Regardless I'm so happy I made the right decision!! Thanks everyone on here for helping me with my journey along the way!!
❤️????

Yes, all I have to say is while I was at the hospital it felt like I was in more pain then I have been since I got home. At home I feel so much better, I slept well and been resting. Now I'm just really thirsty but other than that I feel better!

Hi all, so tomorrow is the BIG day!! I am so nervous and excited but I have been so full of nerves all day.
Pray for me!

Today is my 2nd day of preop diet and I have a headache, also I'm irritated from it. So hang in there we got this!!

I know it's TMI, but I just started my preop diet today and I have been in the restroom constantly, is anyone having this problem or had this problem? Tell me I'm not alone lol.

Yep... it was pretty bad for a few days there, but it got better... just stick with it. You will likely experience the opposite after surgery, i.e. nothing moving.

Yes I did! I remember rolling in to the operating room and telling the guy pushing the gurney that I wish I had taken an Immodium!

Oh yeah!!! Tomorrow is my last day of liquids and surgery on Thursday....I had diarrhea for the first few days and then it leveled off...good luck on your journey!

I share your same situation. One week before my surgery. We can do this. I had a nasty taste in my mouth,too. Finally took tums at bedtime, taste is gone; back to the liquids this morning. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

Yes they are a great clinic!! Wonderful people and great doctors. Can't wait for my surgery!

Houston checking in... my surgeon is Robert's son, Garth. Couldn't be happier with my choice in clinic/surgeon. Best decision I ever made to have the surgery. You are in good hands!
