Breakfast Nausea
For the past week I have had nasuea every morning no matter what I eat. I've tried eggs,protein drink, cheese, tuna on rye bread, cold cereal. Does anyone have any ideas? I know breakfast is very important and I need something in my pouch to take my meds. I am 3 1/2 months out and have lost 57 lbs. By lunchtime I am okay to eat for the rest of the day. What's up?
I am about 2 years post op and my pouch simply will not tolerate anything solid until around lunch time. It actually seems to have an internal clock of its own which recognizes the time of day and accepts or rejects foods appropriately. Even if I am pulling an all-nighter, I can eat solids up until about 3 am then it switches to liquids only for several hours. So, I just give my tummy fluids until it will tolerate solids. I usually start my day with a protein shake or a latte with unflavored protein powder mixed in. Since you need to have something in your tummy a little longer than fluids would stay, perhaps you could start your day with a smoothie made from greek yogurt that will stick to your ribs a little better than a protein drink but not be as heavy as some of the other choices.
Hope that helps

I am almost 4 years out and I have had the same problem for the last year. Every single thing I tried to eat in the morning made me very nauseas.....so horrible. My doc gave me Zofran. So now I have to take it every morning about 30 mins. before I eat so I won't get sick. I also found that I have to eat something little first thing or I will get sick even with the Zofran. I am able to eat 1/2 of a Quest Bar for breakfast......any more than that and the nausea is really bad.
