3 weeks and starting 4th week preop tomorrow..... Is something wrong with me?

I still cant hardly eat anything.  I am getting sick probably every other day.  I have gotten sick on refried beans, tuna, eggs and peanut butter.  I just don't know what to do anymore.... I am very discouraged about this..... I don't feel like I am getting enough calories or nutrition.  I am to the point now I don't want to eat or drink anything because I am tired of being sick.  I cant keep dealing with this. It has to be better..... It just has to.... I am a very positive outgoing person and I have been down in the pits every since surgery because I just feel awful. The protein shakes are starting to make me gag when I drink them.  And there is absolutely nothing I want to eat or drink excep****er.  I am to the point I wish I would have just lost the weight on my own.... Now there is no going back and I don't want to feel miserable like this off and on my whole life.  You cant enjoy it being skinny if you are sick all the time. 

Yes I have talked to the dr and Yes I eat very small bites and chew till it is dissolved almost.......

The saddest part of all of it is my family and friends are to the point they are saying I wish you wouldn't have gotten this surgery.  I told you it wasn't going to be a good idea.....

I am so grouchy with my girls that I am apologizing all the time for being grouchy.  And I cry when I get real sick because I just am so very emotional about it all.  I am not one to ever be sick so being sick almost every day is just not working well for me.

I apologize up front if I seem negative.... But I feel this is really my only place to vent without feeling even worse talking to others about it all.

I haven't cooked for them as much as I should because my senses are all messed up.  When I smell food I get real nauseous so you can see why cooking would be hard for me.  But I have tried to cook more for them lately because I feel so bad for them eating quick things a lot lately.

I cant even spend time with them like I used to because I am weak and tired.  I get one good hour or two a day that I try to get caught up on things at the house and try to do a little something with them.  But I don't have the energy to do much.  I do try to walk with my 10 year old when I can because she loves to ride her bike.  But so far I cant manage to walk all that much. 

Eat or drink besides water...

I am sorry youre going through this. I dont know if you have tried cottage cheese?? Maybe that will go down and stay down for you? I hope things get better and you get back to feeling better.

Greek yogurt?  Just keep trying a variety of things (in very small amounts) within your plan until you find some things that agree with you.

The first couple of months are a roller coaster for everyone, emotionally and physically. You do seem to be having a harder time than most, but try and take it one moment at a time. Negative self-talk of "I shouldn't have done this" isn't really going to help. Look forward, not back. Don't worry about the walking, just do the best you can. I went through a period about 5 weeks out where every protein drink was making me gag. At a support group someone mentioned a coffee flavored one called Fit Frappe. Like a frappachino when mixed in blender. That helped me for awhile. Now some of the ones I hated, I can have again. Keep trying different types. Are you going to support groups? They can be really helpful to feel like you are not alone...

Where do one get the Fit Flappe? I havce my operation on the 12th of Jan 2015 and am getting ready.

Sorry just saw this. I buy it locally at Stop n Shop grocery store. You can buy it online too. I've tried Chike as well, which is good, but I like this better. Some Sam's Clubs sell it.

Amazon has it.. was told to wait as I mite not like certain protein drinks. I got 6 days.. and am scared now from reading all these posts. And my Dr said to come here as I will get help or can get questions answered. Happy New Years all!!

Don't be scared. ;-) I sstill have some eating issues but I feel better as time goes on. I'm at 8 weeks this week. Wish I could eat more things but other then that I feel a lot better just have to drink a lot of protein shakes because not much food agrees w me. They say it will get better in time w that as well

It is true...but I think you go in cycles. Your taste comes back. Ones i couldn't stomach at 5 weeks I drink regularly now.
