2 weeks post op as of today and I am really struggling with nausea. My anti nausea medication is helping but I am still really uncomfortable and it is keeping me from hitting my goals. I can't seem to put my finger on what is causing the problem.

Does anyone have some tips on how to minimize the nausea?

Does it seem worse at certain times during the day? I was super nauseous the first 2-3 weeks in the mornings until I figured out I needed to get up a drink something in the middle of the night. If you're dehydrated, you can also feel nauseous which just makes things work since you don't want to drink anything!

Have you tried warm liquids? That can help relax the stomach a little and help you feel better.

Interesting suggestions. I think I need to pay closer attention to temperature and hydration. I have tried chicken broth a few times but I don't recall if it settled my stomach.

I usually drink cold liquids.< /p>

Looks like it was the Calcium causing the nausea. I stopped 2 days ago and have had no issues.

Now I am just worried about consuming enough Calcium.< /p>

I didn't even think about supplements! I had to switch my multi because it was making me so sick. I'm glad you were able to figure it out and that you're feeling better!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
