Had such a good day outside with my kids today felt great. That is until I came in and drank a Protein Shake. Now I feel like crap..nauseous and crampy like diarrhea is on the horizon. I barely eat. I don't want to. No matter what it is it makes me feel yucky. I've been thru 6 different Protein Shakes. I'm 4 weeks out tomorrow and I feel like food is the devil! I'm starting to really regret this surgery.

I can eat cottage cheese really good with peaches or apples (fresh). My husband bought me the brookstone cottage cheese with pinneapples and after 1 or 2 bites - instant dumping syndrome for about 3 hours! I have found organic gluten cheese puff that melts in your month that I can hold down but it isn't Protein. Also try pickles - not the hard part on the back it works out great for me too. Homemade oatmeal - not the instant kind.

I felt the same exact way as you do now! The thought of food made me sick to my stomach! I forced myself to eat but right afterward I would get extremely nausious and wanted to throw up! To be truthful it took me almost 13 weeks postop to get over this! I'm only 15 weeks postop so it hasn't been that long ago & remember it as of it were yesterday! Force yourself to eat (even if it's a byte) and definitely push the fluids! I promise it will pass but unfortunately it will take a while!! Good Luck!!

I had issues of feeling nauseated and like I wanted to throw up, mine started about 2 weeks after surgery, zofran helped very little, turns out I had to be scoped and my opening had scared down and was causing the problem. Deff check with your doctor!

The doctor gave me carafate, and told me to take Prilosec for 3 months. Hopefully it will help.

      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!!
