Nauseous, the thought of food making me sick

I am 10 days post op (VSG), and since yesterday I've just been feeling so BLAH. I've been working hard to get at least 60g of protein in, and TRYING to get all of my water in, but since yesterday even the thought of food is making me nauseated. I'm sipping down my protein shakes because I know I need them, but I'm having to mind over matter to not throw it up. It's not my stomach that isn't agreeing with it, because I havent really had any issues like that yet, and this just started yesterday. Anyone have any insight? I couldn't even attempt breakfast because oatmeal/cream of wheat the thought of that texture going down my throat... (blech gag)

All of this is making me extremely emotional too. Someone tell me I'm normal! haha

Oh that sounds terrible. I don't have any advice to offer- just that I hope you stay hydrated and feel better soon. 

Hey ! You're normal !! Lol .....Seriously , to be safe just keep an eye on things if they get worse . But , I went through a phase like that around 2 weeks after surgery . And it lasted a couple of weeks . Just zero appetite and nothing appealed to me at all . The thoughts of things and the smell was just very off putting . I'm still kind of struggling with it a little . Stupid stuff like boiled eggs , if I put a little salt on them and I feel it grit against my teeth I immediately think of egg shell  and I can't eat it . I made salmon last night and the whole just reeked and it put me off my meal !!

I haven't not eaten though so it's not got to that point . And some days are better than others . Im almost 2 months out now .So that's why I'm saying just be careful and make sure you get enough protien in .Obviously you need to be sure and contact your Centre if it gets worse .  But it does sound to me like what I experienced. I hope you feel better and find some good stuff that you can get in . Also , the emotional thing I'd say is normal too . I've read a lot of people say about the emotional rollercoaster this can be . And  just yesterday my friend asked seriously if everything was ok as she said I'm not myself lately ! I feel great and this journey is such a positive path for me so far , but I do feel kind of  quiet in myself if that makes sense ? I guess it's just all the adjustments . We will get there girly :) 

Take care

It's been really hard these past 2 days to get my protein in. I even went as far as to buy another tub of protein today, just to try something new. Halfway through and I want to puke =( I hope that if I can just soldier through this next week,  Thursday I get to start purees. Hopefully it'll be better.

Yes that sounds normal.  Try buying some unflavoured protein powder from Bulk Barn and add it to broth, chicken or beef.  Add it to anything that you can tolerate, even coffee.  I found the flavoured protein shakes far too sweet in the beginning, I'm better with them now but still use the Bulk Barn protein in a iced coffee protein shake that way I can control the sweetness.

That's a great idea. I'll try adding some unflavoured to my tea tomorrow morning :) Thank you
