Heightened smells and gag reflex
Melrey... try sipping on the Isopure Protein drinks... for me, I have found that I can keep them down and at least get some protein in. They are a clear liquid so they aren't too thick and heavy...fruity flavors. I will let you know what my NUT says this week. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Heightened smells and gag reflex
Same here. I want a miracle answer right now to get through this. BUT I know that in a year's time, this memory will be so insignificant because I will feel better, be healthier and look amazing!! Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Heightened smells and gag reflex
Are you having any Protein drinks or shakes? Do you just keep going back to liquids? What protein are you keeping down? Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Heightened smells and gag reflex
I totally sympathize with that! I would probably get sick smelling that. It is so weird because my head says certain things will be good (not bad things...chicken, Protein drinks etc) but if I smell them...eh...game over. It does feel like pregnancy again but on a very different level. Lol Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Heightened smells and gag reflex
I am one month post-op and have been having a hard time with smells and my gag reflex. I had an issue with this prior to surgery at a much lower level and didn't really think much about it going into surgery. Sometimes I can even just think about how something might smell or taste and it makes me sick to my stomach and even gag. I'm having a hard time keeping things down and definitely cannot do anything chewable for Vitamins. I have found that the Isopure Protein drinks are OK for me and I can sip on them all day. food is hit-or-miss depending on the day and depending on my reflexes. I have read a lot of different forums where people have similar stories but I'm not really sure what I need to do about this. I'm hoping to have an appointment with my bariatric office this week. I really just want to know how long this lasts and if anybody has any tips to get through this period after surgery. Thank you all so much! Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
