I felt pretty bad my first two weeks, and I struggled the same as you. Starting week 3 I started feeling a lot better. My surgery was 5/23 and I was finally able to hit my protein and water goal just 3 days ago. And only able to get all my vitamin supplements in the day before yesterday. Just hang in there...it WILL get better, a little bit each day.

Hi, all, My VSG was on 5/23. I'm finally feeling like I can make it (pain was intense the first 10 days or so). I'm doing well except I can't get all my vitamins in. I am supposed to take a sublingual B12 (which I am good with). Also 2 huge chewable multivitamins (doing better with these now that I crush them and put in applesauce) and 2 chewable calciums. The calcium makes me want to barf. I still am am not quite up to where I need to be on my protein, but getting better. I feel like I have a new full-time job of taking vitamins. LOL! I'm glad I've had the surgery though. I know my life& my health are going to be so much better.

I'm scheduled for 5/23. And I DO get nervous and then I get excited. I started a journal on the day of my first appointment and wrote down ALL the reasons I had for wanting to do WLS. When I get nervous I re-read that list. Good luck to you!
