Help not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not? I lost 15 pounds the first two weeks and have not lost anything since then. On Tuesday I'll be a month it seems like every time I eat I feel bad, sick to my stomach and feel like I'm going to throw up. Don't know where to turn only people that I have told is my son and mother, which are to busy to even listen to me, plus the don't understand. Any suggestions to help me start losing again or not feeling nauseous??

Job 1 is to figure out the nausea. I experienced the same at about 5 weeks. Call your clinic. I had a kink and they were able to straighten it out with an upper endoscopy (just passing the scope through did the trick). I started experiencing some nausea again several days after that and was only able to feel like I was beginning to turn the corner after I got some better antinausea meds. I let the nausea go too long and was experiencing severe symptoms. I was extremely weak, nearly passed out in the shower, was vomiting regularly... While I don't want to be melodramatic, it really was fairly awful. Ultimately, what was happening was I had some nausea likely caused by the remaining swelling from surgery, which caused vomiting, which increased the nausea, which gave me an aversion to eating/drinking, which exacerbated the whole thing. It just kept cycling. Until I finally got some fairly strong antinausea meds, I couldn't get out of the cycle.

So... call your clinic. Seriously. Get it figured out so you can start feeling better. Don't worry about having not lost in a couple weeks. It's very typical at this stage. Let your body heal. It will do it's job, often in fits and starts. Good luck!

The nausea is a bit concerning. Are you eating regularly? Every 2-3 hours. Is the nausea only starting after you eat? Have you tried a variety of foods and are some bothering you more than others? Is your surgeon local? Do you have access to a nutritionist? Secondly the weight loss is pretty much what I am dealing with and seems to be the norm. I lost 12# or so in the first 6 days after surgery and have drop.2 here.4 here jumped up a lb dropped 2 lbs, very inconsistent. As my surgeon says "If you are following the rules, eating protein first and veggies second and staying away from the bad stuff you are going to be successful, don't become a slave to the scale, don't let the scale decide how your day is going to be, live your life"

There could be several reasons for nausea... I am with the majority and would say talk with your surgeon's office. I had to take nausea meds for about 6 weeks post op. Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks everyone! I feel a little better that I'm not screwing up and it my fault I feel sick. I have my month appt withy doc Wed and I will talk to him about feeling ill every time I eat or drink.
