Good evening everyone. I was sleeved on 9/16. I was fortunate to have little to no pain and a very quick recovery post-op. I even returned to work one week after surgery. On Saturday (2 days ago), I started having nausea. I've always drank a gallon of water per day, and now water is the greatest offender. I get nauseated after a sip. I'm still getting my liquids in and protein, by the hardest, via Isopure and shakes but cannot tolerate solids. I lost 11 pounds during my first two weeks and nothing since. In fact, when I got on the scale yesterday, I'd gained two pounds. How is that even possible when I'm consuming less than 500 calories per day, most of which is protein?! (I log everything in MFP.) I've been following this forum for almost six months now. I've seen everyone's success, but when the scale isn't moving, I can't help but wonder WTH?? I really hope I don't live to regret this. I've always been a high energy person and I'm pretty useless these days, which is awful since I work full-time, and have a 3-year-old and 7-month-old. My husband helps a lot (thank goodness!) Please tell me this works. Please, please, please!

Thank you all so much for the support. Good news! No nausea today. So far today, I've eaten scrambled eggs, 1/2 banana and about 3/4 of a Quest bar. That's all in the last four hours. I'm feeling great.

I think I'm still "learning" my sleeve. And I'm learning that I just can't tolerate chicken at this point. I do great with seafood, which is wonderful since I love it. I live in Louisiana - all seafood, all the time!

That's great news!!! I'm really happy for you! Give it a couple weeks and see what happens with chicken again, sometimes it takes a little while (That's what they tell me, anyway )
