Hi all, I am close to 9 months out and am wondering if anyone this far out still gets nauseous from time to time, and feel like they can't eat or drink.

Mostly happens at night during dinner. After dinner even if I don't eat that much, I start feeling sick. Sometimes I have to lay down. I can not drink anything after dinner time. I make sure I get all my Water in before that.

I still nauseous from time to time (i'm 2.5 years out) but its always because of too much sugar. Even worse when its too much sugar on an empty stomach.

Two years out & yep I do. Probably more I want to lie down versus nausea now often coupled with my restriction kicking in. It can happen when I go out to eat & eat a little too quickly or if I’m not fully hydrated. Sometimes it’s when what I’m eating isn’t sitting well. Had lunch with a fellow sleever this week & after lunch we both groaned & said I need to lie down. Quite funny actually. We both had an all day Keto Breakfast. I had some bacon for the first time in ages & I think it set me off. She said the last bite did her in.

I don't eat sugar so I know its not from that. I always eat slowly and eat small bites of food and chew completely. I am thinking of calling my docs office on Monday to see what they say about it.

I haven't been out to eat since before my surgery. I eat very slowly, and always make sure I am hydrated so I know its not any of that stuff. I basically eat the same things every day so I am curious to see what its all about.

Too much sugar makes me feel crappy. If you still have your gallbladder, you might want to have it checked. Gallbladder disease will present with evening nausea for many people, and it's very common after rapid weight loss.

Yup. If I eat too fast. It comes on like a train and I feel like I’m going to barf. Seems to happen more when I get to talking a lot at a meal and forget to eat slow. Still have to concentrate even almost 3 years out.

I don't eat sugar. I had my gallbladder removed in 2012.

I eat slowly. So slow that everyone is done before me, and my food is always cold.

I’ve found that sometimes my tummy just says nope not today. I eat basically the same things every week but there are odd days when what I’ve eaten just goes straight through me. It could be exactly what I ate the day before or I’ve often been eating for weeks. I can even have it again in a day or so & no problem. I don’t eat spicy food because of a sensitivity/allergy so I can’t blame that.

Trying to eat slowly is more difficult when dining out. Your fellow diners have finished their meals & you’re barely a third through. Your chatting & focusing on your eating. Wait staff hover wanting to clear the table. Etc. That’s why I have problems then.

Aah, yes, cold food. I take 30 to 60 mins to eat so my meals always get cold. You get used to it but sometimes I reheat in the microwave.

Oh just remembered I used to be nauseous almost every day from my Multi Vitamins. (Don’t take them anymore.) took one in the morning & one at night after I ate which helped a little. Just a thought.

But if you’re concerned have a chat with your medical team.

Thanks for the info. I am going to call my nutritionist in the morning.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
