HOWEVER LASTNIGHT I WENT TO BED AND STARTED GETTING REALLY NAUSIATED (SP) IT LASTED ALL NIGHT LONG AND I COULDN'T SLEEP. WELL THIS MORNING I GOT UP AND FELT DRUNK AND STARTED DRY HEAVING (NASTY I KNOW) WELL SO I DRANK SOME WATER AND HAD SOME CHICKEN BROTH AND NOW MY STOMACH BURNS LIKE **** THE INSIDE OF ME FEELS HOT, JUST MY TUMMY AREA, IT STARTED AT MY CHEST BUT NOW I FEEL LIKE I AM GOING TO PUKE AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN DRINKING ENOUGH WATER TO BE A FISH AND ONLY EATING/DRINKING SF JELLO EVERY SO OFTEN PROTIEN SHAKE, SF POP SICKLES AND BROTH....ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS ISSUE? I JUST FEEL SO WEIRD AND NOT TO MENTION I HAVE THESE TERRIBLE BAGS UNDER MY EYES AND MY HUSBAND SAID I LOOK LIKE A ZOMBY...SO IS IT JUST ME?

I never felt that way during my liquids diet before surgery...but I have felt like that ever since surgery....BLAH!


Call you nutritionist at your center and let them know whats going on, you may need to change your diet for a few days and then try again...or you could be coming down with something, have you taken your temperature?

I will do that, take my temp I didn't think of that. It's very strange to me I am feeling better it's just off and on that it happens.  I hope to god I am not coming down with something once i get sick i stay sick. lol.  Anyways thanks for the kind message...I am deff going to call tomorrow if I still feel this way. THanks again!!

I just had my surgery a week ago and only did a couple days of liquids. I felt like crap the whole time but not like you. I slept through most of it. Call your doctor cuz yuck... That's awful and post surgery I felt like crap for days. While in the hospital I was wondering if I had made a mistake because I felt so yucky and weak. But the weight is just melting off and I feel better every day. Hang in there. It gets better but the post surgery diet sucks to. Good luck on your surgery.
