So I'm curious after you get sick, how long before you feel ok again? I'm 1 week out - last night I had pudding for the 1st time, I'm thinking I ate too much because the nausea and diarrhea was horrible. It was sugarfree, and I ate it with a baby spoon, over about 30 minutes.

I still feel sick, 18 hours later. Is there a typical reset time? I need to eat and have a shake, but feel so sick I don't want to. I have taken zofran for nausea last night and this morning.

Everybody is different, I felt sick all the time that early on. My suggestion would be to sip at your Water, if it stays down then try your Protein shake. Maybe its too early for sugar free pudding. Stick to your liquid diet for a few more days.

I will stay following so we can see the results and help others who may have the same issue.

Im 6 weeks out and tried to eat a piece of cookie dough.. the break and bake kind. Ugh my stomach is having a fit, gurgling and churning! I will not do that again for a long long time.

Oh no. I think pudding was maybe too early. A few bites of applesauce have been ok, but in general I just feel sick. At least I know I'm not alone - most people say they feel great in a week. Definitely not me.

I was sleeved 9/14 and was on Clear liquids for 1 week after, them moved to full liquids for two weeks. THEN I get to go to a puréed diet. You likely ate too much, too solid to soon.

@@rolosmom7 I don't know if this was the case for you but I had the same problems in the first two weeks with any dairy (minus the diarrhea). Small amounts of dairy for pudding and cottage cheese was allowed on my plan. I was also allowed scrambled eggs and had no issues with those. Cottage cheese and the pudding just didn't sit well with me no matter how small the amount. I have no issues now at almost 4 weeks out, and I had no issues with dairy prior to surgery.

Yes, probably. I got pudding and applesauce approved early to help take pills. Applesauce does much better. I'm holding on the pudding.

Hmm. Interesting. I got Lactaid brand milk, didn't even think about dairy being in pudding. Maybe when I try again in a few days I'll make it from a box with lactaid milk. Thanks!

      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.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      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!!
