Light headed and tired
newbeginnings1965 replied to mzdonez's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am also about 2.5 weeks out (7/29) and somedays i feel very tired and weak. Yesterday i could only handle taking a shower. I get my protein and fluids each day, but 600 calories a day is not much. I am still on liquids so i have not had any "real" food yet. That does not help. -
Why Am I Dropping Weight So Slowly?
newbeginnings1965 replied to Icandoalthingsthruchrist's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I feel the same I lost 10 pounds in the first 10 days and only three pounds over the last 8 it's frustrating when you only eating 600 calories a day and not losing much I'm trying to be patient like everyone says -
18 days out and i do feel real hunger, especially in the morning. The good news is that very little ends the hunger. If i have 1 egg scrambled i am full. In the past it would have been 2 eggs with cheese, toast and hashbrowns.

Sleeve on 7/29 (or close), how are we doing?
newbeginnings1965 posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Surgery on 7/29. Am on liquid diet, plus protein drinks. Suppose to do this until 21 days. I would like something more before then, some yogurt or watered down outmeal. Wanted to see where others that were sleeved around the same time is with their diet. -

Let me know how stage 2 goes, my dr does not move to stage 2 until 21 days. Let me know what goes down easy and what did not go so well. -

I am 9 days out from VGS and am on a liquid diet until day 21. I can have Clear liquids and Protein shakes. No yogurt. I am so tired of drinking. I am not ready for meat, but a yogurt or watered down oatmeal would be great. I am only getting 500-600 calories a day and my body has slowed the weight loss because it is in starvation mode. Difficult when you are consuming so little and the scale barely moves. Physically the surgery was much easier than I anticipated, but it is a mental roller coaster
