Nausea after 2 years... (specifically diary/drink related)



Recommended Posts

So I'm 2 years out from gastric sleeve surgery. Last year I started eating carbs again and got way off track. I posted about this back at the end of December and I'm still trying to work the kinks out, since I have been on-and-off doing well with getting back into the healthy lifestyle that I LIVED BY before reintroducing carbs. I know that I can do it I've just been having trouble keeping myself from falling back into old habits.

I've recently noticed that I almost always get sick when I drink/eat anything dairy-based AND sweetened. Whether the sweetener is artificial (no sugar added hot chocolate or Protein shakes) or real (like one serving of ice cream on a cheat day). I get the sweats, that feeling of shakiness or general unease, and finally unignorable nausea until I just have to just run to the bathroom and give up.

This is not something I've ALWAYS suffered from. Especially with the Protein Shakes since I drank them regularly for at least the first six moths or so. I think this happens more often with powdered protein mixes than it does with the pre-made Premier Protein shakes though, for whatever that's worth. I keep telling myself it may because I just drink it too fast, but I am not so sure anymore.

I have almost a full case of premiere protein (which I think I'll TRY keep and just drink verrrry slowly) and a brand new container of EAS Lean 15 Protein Powder. Not sure I'll ever be able to finish that if every time I make a shake I get sick.

At this point, I'm just ready to give up on protein supplements period. I am trying to maintain a high fat/protein and low carb diet (basically Keto, but modified for WLS and my protein requirements) so I definitely feel like I get enough protein anyway without the supplements. I don't know.

I'm really just writing this because I'm curious if anyone else has experienced the same thing.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
