Help...all the protein is making me vomit.



Recommended Posts

Ok I'm only a couple days out but I'm concerned bc every Protein I've tried so far is causing me to vomit as soon as I swallow it.. I can drink my broth, Water and etc but the protein is just not going down.

I've tried Isopure, powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, and a protein bullet from Walgreens.com.. Please let me know if there's anything else.. I am on clear liquid only.

Thank you

I had a hard time with the clear Protein Drinks like special K Protein Water mix, Isopure it would coat my tongue and burn my throat and almost made me vomit so I called the drs. office and they told me to stop drinking it since I would be able to have skim milk and stuff in a few days. They didn't want me vomiting. So you might want to call them about it. I do know that reading on here all doctors are different but I can't imagine throwing up is good for the stomach or the incisions. Good luck. Things do get easier and I am only 3 weeks out.

Actually skim milk is in my list for this week, 4 oz portions but I was scared to try it but I guess I'll give it a try in the morning. Thanks so much!

I had originally used an old copy of the post sleeve diet and the first week there was no Protein and did not notice it until I was at home a few days. The doctor and nurse told me not to worry, it was far more important to get your fluids at that time. Take it easy, go slow and hopefully it won't be so bad after a few days and you can start taking it in better.

It can be hard in the beginning. One of the easiest Protein Drinks I found (and I actually liked it) was Syntrax's nectar. They have 15 different flavors and most of them are fruity. They still have the chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, etc. but they have a lot of flavors that mimic Crystal Light. I actually bought a sample pack from mybariatricpantry.com and got to choose the flavors I wanted. They had a ton of samples that you could buy of different product lines. I also tried Syntrax's Matrix sample pack and loved those too. The mint cookie was my favorite. A great site for samples and foods that's for sure especially if you don't know what you like or haven't tried a lot of different things. Hope this helps and remember...it will get better!! :D

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
