out of ideas

It has been a little over a week since I underwent the sleeve. Wondering what the heck I have done to myself. I can't find a protein I can tolerate. All the dairy protein whey's make me want to puke. Which Is so weird because I was able to tolerate them presurgery. Now the simple smell makes me go BLAHHHH. I have tried the green tea Isopure and it tastes like dirty socks smells... I was so excited about a new start, a healthier me - but now I feel lethargic and uncertain that I made a wise decision. I can't seem to hold anything down in my stomach - except chicken broth. My sense of smell is like when I was pregnant and everything is intensified. I am down 26 lbs (that includes the 10 lbs pre surgery). I am a very optimistic person - yet I just don't know what to do... Yesterday I called my dietitian and she spoke with my surgeon who said even though it is early, I could try pureed chicken or tuna. So I tried tuna and my stomach felt like I had "quick sand in it." Between the cramping and reflex. It feels like so much longer than a week and a day. HELP. Feeling trapped in a body I'm unfamiliar with...

Chicken and tuna can be kinda heavy at this time. Try some yogurt, eggs, or even beans.

My surgeon did clear liquids for two days, full liquids for two weeks, then soft foods. I tried egg beaters today, and after one bite I had dry heaves. OMG, nasty!!

"FOUND" BUT HOW COULD U EAT SCRAMBLED eggs A WEEK AFTER SURGERY. OMG

One bite at a time and slowly.... I had my surgery on 2/7 and I went out with my wife on valentines day at a friends restaurant and he made me scrambled eggs.... They rocked.
