I threw up every hour on the hour and of course I'm that girl that when she throws up she also pees. It sucked! All I tasted was blood and bile for the whole week! Best of luck and keep us posted:)

Just curious if the ones who threw up had the patch? I thought it was supposed to help nausea! It worked for me and I didn't get a Migraine either. Started to, but warned the nurse and she got the ok to infuse another med. it worked.

Had my sleeve on the 18th of April . I'm trying to do 3 Protein Shakes a day. Trying to drink slowly. Cheated and had 2 yogurts. Small stony fields yogurt . Also had the broth and a tablespoon of ramen noodles. My tummy just rumbles and makes crazy noises. I'm using a heating pad cause my left side feels a little sore. So do I continue Protein shakes and Clear Liquids this week? Still have diarrhea , but only at night. I'm starting to think that the yogurt is giving me the diarrhea . I'll weigh in tomorrow .

I'm sorry that some people have nausea. I was given zofran and I never got sick. I hope everyone feels better!

Sorry to hear. I have nausea pills that the doc gave me to take proactively. Do you think maybe Prilosec or nexium would help? Fingers crossed for you!

Strongly recommend Nexium, Protonix, Prilosec, or something comparable for post-surgery.

Birdie, THREE Protein Shakes a day? THREE?!? How? I'm lucky to get one down over the course of a day. I balance them with cream Soups made with double milk. Managing to meet my Protein requirements that way.

My dr has me on full liquids for three weeks. Then, purée. Can't wait. I can have scrambled eggs on the purée diet!

I can only get about 4 ounces of Protein a day. I am having a really hard time getting more than 4 grams if protein. Also in the hospital I was on so many different nausea meds at once. I had the patch, a shot, and something in my I.V. I stayed on all 3 for 3 days.

Be sure not to take in to much Protein if your not active enough for your body to burn it. If you are very active then that much is great. I'm back to walking 8 miles a day do I try to make sure I get 70-80g protein daily, also if you are not able to get that much down at once, blend a tablespoon of penut butter in it and that will add a boost to the protein

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
