week 3-nausea

I'm new here,so hello everybody!! I had my gastric sleeve surgery on 8/14/13! I am almost on week 3..one problem is nausea!! How can I get rid of it?? I starred getting it once I started the pureed stage. My protein shakes are the cause of it. I changed them and I still get sick..anything else I can take? Eggs also made me sick :(

Most Protein Powders let you buy samples. Try canned chicken - very soft... tuna...??

Maybe you need to delay the pureed stage and try it again in a few days. It seems that as long as you are getting your protein and liquids you would be okay. I assume you have been in touch with your doctor and nutritionist? Perhaps the doctor can prescribe something and/or the nutritionist can help with some additional eating options and approaches.

My docs said the biggest cause of post-op nausea past the pumped full of drugs phase is eating or drinking too fast or too much. Try slowing down a bit and see if it helps.

My dr said canned tuna, canned chicked, mashed beans, etc. The protein powders made me sick but I am able to keep down a mashed hard boiled egg.

It takes me about 45 mins to eat, I find that mash potatoes are easy for me to eat n some baby foods n fruits..only problem is the protein shakes..I tried changing to the powder, n I still get nausea. She prescribed nausea medicine for me since I had nausea since the hospital. Due to the holiday, I won't have contact with her til tuesday..thanks for the replies!-
