I lived on saltine crackers. Ate a few after each meal. My nausea hung out for about 8 weeks.

Almost 4 weeks post op and the Protein shakes make me extremely nauseated although I still try to get them down, or part of them. When I take my nausea meds the nausea lessens and I am able to get other Protein down. Greek yogurt and cottage cheese are my this week's friends. Right now having "buyer's remorse" and wish I never had the bypass as I have no energy like I did before the bypass. Is it too soon to expect to feel better, I am down 42lbs but feel horrible. Need suggestions.

I also live with constant nausea. I take prescription meds and it helps a little. Drinking anything is the major problem, as I'm immediately nauseated. Eating takes about 20 minutes before I feel icky. I see the dr tomorrow, and I'm hoping to find an answer to the problem. I'm 7 weeks out today from my RNY.

I know this post is a few months old but wanted to add lemon helps with nausea. I drink ice tea with lemon when I go out to dinner because I do not eat much when I do and it helps with that kind of food where I am not sure 100% how it is prepared.

Good luck!

I was nauseated a lot and it ended up being the medicine to prevent kidney stones. I stopped it for a week and felt much better. Now I'm on a lower dosage of it.

I am 5 days out and have had constant nausea. Cannot drink anything but a sip of Water to get down my meds. I have buyers remorse, big time.

I hear you and understand. I had the remorse really bad about day 4-5. After you get past the liquid stage and can start eating soft meats and Wendy's chili, things will get a little better. I am 6 weeks post op and I still have days that I "just don't feel good". I keep pushing myself though. Walking/Weight training every day. I seem to feel better after I exercise. I promise it will get better, but you are just at the very beginning. I have lost 31 lbs and I was not on a pre-surgery diet. My weight loss is all from surgery. Pay attention to your stomach vs. lactose. I had to start drinking soy milk because I became lactose intolerant. Here is a shake for you to try to help make you feel better:

1 c. soy (unsweetened vanilla)

1 tbs. Peanut Butter

1/2 frozen banana

6 ice cubes

30g powdered Protein

Mix all ingredients in a blender. I have a Nutribullet and love it. Good luck to you!!

I am 4.5 mo out and recently nausea is kicking my butt even with nausea meds. Even Water makes me sick. Today made an appt to see my dr to see what is up. Hopefully she can shed some light.

Keeping fingers crossed.

I have to say that nausea is one of my biggest fears.

Does everyone experience nausea after the surgery?

Me too! I have to force myself to eat a lot of the time. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. It is such a struggle but I have heard from people that this stage will pass. :) let's hope so!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
