8 weeks out and I'm starving and dont know what to eat since almost everything makes me sick...all I had today was about 7oz of water...helllllppo

Hoping you feel better soon

Have you contacted your doctor? Healthy choices shouldn't be making you sick. Especially at 8 weeks out.

Chicken, fish, refried beans...whatever you eat, try to get in the protein. You may need to check in with your dr/nut. Good luck! I am 8 weeks out, too....I struggle to drink still. Wishing you the best!

you should be able to handle a little more at 8 weeks. At 8 weeks, I survived on Chili( homemade with extra meat and beans, no oil), Greek Yogurt, Crab salad, Black Bean soup( with spinach and chicken), Quacker Oats high fiber oatmeal, Spinach, Chicken, Isopure protein shake and water:)

If you are only drinking 7 oz of Water you are severely dehydrated sweetie. You need to see or at least speak with your doctor. Is food actually making you sick or is it just the thought of it?

Until you can get on track at least try to drink your Protein. Try some protein spiked sugarfree pudding. Or mix up some fruit Protein Shakes if you can.

I'm sorry you are having a hard time. At 8 weeks you should be feeling better. I'm worried about you.

How is your energy?

I'm 8 wks out also, I can barely eat and I do not meet my water quota...I have been to the Dr. she says its normal and I am just slower to come around...but I'm very, very weak. I get bad headache's where my brain actually feels like it is disconnected and moves around freely. When I move my eyes to look towards the side it causes me sharp pains...I cant wait until this passes...it really sucks......so I definitely feel ya, girlfriend....I hope it improves for both of us....

I had surgery on 3-18-13. I have eaten baked tilapia, and did fine. Ground turkey, chicken, pork tenderloin. I had bacon the other day. I do numerous types of cheese, Greek yogurt, eggs and egg beaters. I tried beef once, but I think it was too soon. I also use jay Robb egg protein powder in chocolate . I take lactaid before dairy products. Hope this helps

Being dehydrated can make you nauseated. Up your Fluid intake pronto. Are you taking an acid reducer? Early post-op I had a very picky tummy. No dairy except Fat Free Greek Yougurt, no acidic foods, and no spice. No bread, Pasta, or grain.

I ate lunch meat, moist chicken, greek yogurt, soy milk, anderson split pea Soup (most other cream Soups bothered me) and GNC Gold Standard whey Protein in vanilla, unjury Chicken Soup protein. I had the occasional saltine cracker. For veggies, I ate a bite of mild veggies, such as zucchini or carrots. Only fruit I could eat was applesauce, bananna, and watermelon.

I recommend calling your doc ASAP if you can't up your fluid intake.

Are you taking a nausea medicine, like Zofran? Hope you get past this stage quickly!

I'm still on nausea meds 5 weeks out.

I don't think I get my full amount of liquids in... but before surgery I didn't drink very much, so I drink more than I did back then.

I am doing fairly well on the eating. Ground beef is a little tough, but chicken and fish go very well.

Good luck... talk to your doctor for nausea meds so that you can get the Protein in!

I have ZERO energy...after I attempt to eat anything I have to lie down...It's so bad that I wished I could function normal without having to eat or drink anything because if that were the case id be fine.

Don't lay down after eating-my surgeon said that's the worst thing you can do. Let gravity work towards your benefit and remain upright for as long as possible!

And don't you wish we knew this before?

Try Fage greek yogurt with 7 blueberries, 2 frozen strawberries, and about the size of your pinky banana with 1 splendia sugar and enjoy. I hate yogurt but it taste like a smoothie you would get from jamba juice I buy the 6 oz fage and use half of it one container is 18 gm of protein so half is 9 or you can use the whole container just use 2 splendia and an xtra strawberry and 2 more blueberries.
