    I wonder if it could be the Vitamins. Thanks for the responses. I will try vitamins maybe after breakfast.

    Most mornings its hard to just eat Breakfast without feeling sick first. I pop in two women’s multi gummy vitamins. After that its breakfast and I constantly have to rotate my choices. Rather it be eggs or oatmeal. I have to move it around. Im going into week 4 post op. So solids for me. Im sleeved and loving it. Still some getting use to. Like figuring out im full. Because stuffing causes pain. Also the burps to satisfy the food right after eating. Protein Drinks are a no go since surgery. Im 12/17/18 ❤️

    Could it be the Vitamins on an empty stomach that's making you nauseous?

    I had the same issue early on, I found I could not take Vitamins or meds super early. Hopefully you feel better soon.

    I've always been a breakfast eater and that stopped cold turkey since surgery (aug). I'm not nauseous in the mornings anymore but breakfast just sounds terrible. And when I force myself to eat it, I don't feel well. I do drink a Protein coffee with Fairlife milk, coffee, GENEPRO and SF toriani in the mornings. Eat my first real meal after the gym, 9 or 10am. My nutritionist does not love that plan but says I can go with it for now if I make sure to eat a small snack after dinner. They're not kidding when they say EVERYTHING changes. Good luck on your recovery and congrats on you surgery. Feels great to take excellent care of yourself!

    I'm 5 days post op and I get what you are saying. I do feel like everyday gets a little better. Also, I know what you mean about the taste buds, a lot of things taste weird to me now. Somethings taste really metallic to me. I have no doubt it'll get better.
  12. Thanks

    Hi,
    I'm on my week 2 post op. It does get better day by day. Hang in there. I feel like the 1st week can be hard but it slowly eases up. I'd speak with the doctor if there is anything you can do for nausea. I get nauseous at times too but it's mainly when I've eaten too much. It is a clue that I'm full. Also remembering to eat slow and small bites has helped me avoid those discomforts from my tummy after eating.
    Good Luck! and don't give up. It will get better. I promise. Just follow the recommendations from your surgical team and be patient. It's all worth it in the end :).
  13. Thanks

    Today I am one week post op. I feel more nauseous than anything. I try to relieve it with burping but its starting to disgust me. Today I stood on the scale at 266.0. makes me happy. But this has been a long road. I really really regret it. I am 18 pounds down. I need to stay away from the scale. The Protein Shakes make me feel sick to my stomach. My me maw made me some chicken broth. I also got a couple pints of low sodium chicken broth from Walmart. But it does me no justice. Its nasty. Its like my taste buds are different. Before surgery I ate Popsicle sf and Jello sf. Now it tastes disgusting to me.The homemade broth is the best part. Today my pain tolerance is a little better. sleeping is still very uncomfortable. I'm not able to cuddle which sucks. Bending forward without gaping my legs like a frog is bad. It is very uncomfortable to sit straight up. i drink Water and crystal light fine. The Proteins I'm having trouble getting in. I'm angry and I'm just ready to reclaim my life. I tried Maalox and it helped. But I see I'm still constipated. Overall it has been a nightmare from hell. I'm praying for better days.

    Yeah I’ve been noticing Water taste strange now. They sent me home with OxyContin tablets. I wish it was liquid. Oh yeah and sleeping is so hard! My dad has had this procedure and he keeps reassuring me after the first week it gets way easier. Oh and I will definitely try drinking while standing.

    Wow they told me my liver didn’t shrink either. They didn’t mention a special device but I’m in a ton of pain. Luckily I haven’t had a issue with keeping stuff down but every time I drink Water my stomach cramps up really bad. I am shocked my liver didn’t shrink because I was so strict with my pre op diet.

    I am trying not to be around food. So I think why cook? But I have to teach myself to ignore cravings. But it is a lifestyle change that I am trying to do. So why cheat? So im trying to be more active

    Im having my surgery in a week and two days im nervous. This liquid diet is challenging. My family is clearly not changing their eating habits. So its hard to sip chalk shakes and watery Soup on robard. The cinnamon bars are the best. Im just ready ready ready. Im 282.3 as of today.
