I kinda hate that I always feel nauseous... Seems like whenever I'm doing well I always feel icky, like on the verge of getting sick. Does anyone else feel this way when their dieting? I'm eating enough, eating healthy, and I'm not taking any diet pills! I am taking a multi vitamin and fish oil pills however and I can look at those pills and start feeling ill. Is my stomach just sensitive?

Are you taking your fish oil with food? I tried it once, without food, and I was really ill.0

yup I take all my pills after I eat breakfast because if I don't I WILL GET SICK! I'm a whimp!0

Vitamins are bound together with different things, sometimes people are sensative to those bindings. My Mother cant take Centrum because it makes her sick to her stomach and I avoid vitamins bound with yeast because I'm sensative to it. Also, vitamins on an empty stomach make me ill, especially fish oil.0

I'm taking GNC- "be whole" multi vitamin, they said it was not one to be so strong but more of a natural one. I'll have to double check, I thought when I bought it they actually said it DID NOT contain a lot of iron which is why they thought it would be good for me... Ugh... I feel sick off and on all day long! It's ridiculous!0

I had a friend who said that taking fish oil makes her very nausea...that could be the culprit.0

I take all mine at bedtime... Then I won't feel yukky!0

I can't take any vitamins or supplements (like fish oil) because I am allergic to something in all supplements like that. Not sure what it is as we've never been able to pinpoint the exact ingredient, but I can't take anything like that. If I were you, I'd stop taking the vitamin AND the fish oil and see if you feel better. I noticed my face cleared up and I felt better within 2 days of stopping them.0

Hmmm ... well, then, I don't know! lol
As other said, maybe it's the fish oil.
It may be worth looking at whether you're getting enough nutrients without the vitamins and skipping them altogether.0 -
It could be your diet. How much you eat and what you are eating will play a roll in this. I know when i start cutting i go from 5000 cals a day to 2000 cals. I feel sick to my stomach for a week until my body gets use to the way im eating0

might have to stop them.... dang it!0

I dont think fish oil would do it if it is taken with food. How long have you been on them?0

I would say this. Many years ago I took a woman's multi with iron, within 30 minutes I was fighting to keep food down. I switched to a iron-free formula and bought a separate slow-release iron supplement. This fixed my problem. I was even able to take them on an empty stomach which I could NOT do with the multi w/ iron included.0 -

Do you have a cheat day in your diet? Seeing you have been taking them for over a year im pretty sure that aint it.0 -
Do you use a lot of artificial sweeteners - they can play havoc with your body.0

Different brands can be slightly different. I say pick a brand and stick with it. See if that helps.0 -
coffee bad for you and any kind of sweeteners but hey some people need there coffee to start the day. If i could see your food diary that would help0

What do you define as "eating healty" vs "eating crud"? I'd venture to guess that if you are like most people what you've been told is healthy is probably making you feel worse.
Stay away from grains, sugar and low fat anything and eat higher fat lower carb meals and I would bet your symptoms would go away within a week.0
