It has been over three weeks since my sleeve and still not able to eat without vomiting. My doctor told me today that I am suffering from malnutrition and have to get my stomach stretched this Friday. The only thing that is keeping me alive is that I am drinking. Has anybody had this problem? He said that if it doesn't work this Friday, that I will have to have this procedure again.

I am less than two weeks post-op. I am supposed to drink protein drinks and my hospital recommends Atkins High Protein Shakes. I'm sorry, but these shakes are nasty and they make me sick. Does anyone out there have a recommendation of any other protein shake that doesn't taste so bad? I would really appreciate your help!
