It is low. I just started getting protein in this past week as I couldn't stomach it. I just found ones I can tolerate bringing it to 50 to 60 g protein. I didnt know itd make me so tired. Its just hard to get it in on clear liquid. Sent from my SM-G920F using BariatricPal mobile app

I had my surgery 12 days ago, and I know Im suppose to rest and whatever. And mostly I am. I walk a bit or use elliptical but not long. 15 mins tops at a time. Im always tired. Always. Before surgery Id sleep 6 to 8 hrs a day. Now I sleep 10 to 12. Im tired throughout the day and sometimes take naps. Is this normal? My diet is clear liquid although Ive cheated and had a few spoonfuls of soup or a teaspoon of peanut butter. (Saved my sanity) I drink lots of fluids and get about 30g of protein a day, trying to work up to more. I just have no energy. I really wanted to start working out but my legs are unstable or I want to sleep. I read of people doing long walks or exercises within first 2 weeks of surgery. Here I am exhausted.

My plan doesnt allow the option. I have to stay on clear liquids so I cant even have veg juice. Sent from my SM-G920F using BariatricPal mobile app

I have sugarfree jello and popsicles but they tend to cause gas, making eating them undesirable. I distract myself with art and doing business busy work, but my mind always drifts back to food. I should try to work out a tad more, Im just so lethargic since surgery. I did lick some pb off a spoon like a lollipop and it was magical, but I cant just cheat the system. Im sure my stomach will hate me later. T^T Sent from my SM-G920F using BariatricPal mobile app

Hello, Im new here but a lurker for months. I had my sleeve surgery on Tuesday, sent home Friday and suppose to stick to a low/no sugar clear liquid diet until 31st. Im struggling sooo much with it. Preopt was hard but not this hard! I mostly drink crystal light and try to stomach protein shakes. But I miss and need variety and texture! Im trying to keep distracted but I even dream about foods with texture. How do I survive this? How do/did you? Thanks♡
