6 Days Out And I Feel So Tired And Weak



Recommended Posts

I think I am having a bad moment, but not sure. I feel so tired and I get hot flashes for no reason. I am also disgusted with myself because I can't make the 64 oz Water mark:( I am barley at 30 oz. I just feel so full. I am so tired and really starting to think I made a big mistake:(

sigh....

Thank you for just letting me vent.

That is my biggest fear is lack of energy! I'm scheduled for March 28th and I have 3 small kids. EVERYONE has said the sleeve is the "best decision" they have ever made in their lives so I'm hanging on to those words! No one has ever said it in the first week though as far as I know :D Most everyone seems to think thr turning point is around week 2.

Hi

I think you need to just relax and take your time to get better.I was sleeved on the 13th and I have good hours in every day ( wanted to say good days but maybe all's good for 7 hours and then just like that,I drink some Soup or something and feel as sick as a dog.So good hours is good enough for now)

I am trying to not do to much every day.Out for only a few hours at a time.As for the rest I sit in my arm chair with my ottoman and I just take it easy.Am up and down the stairs all day ( to the kitchen,for the kids ect) but other than that I am recovering....AND IT IS OK!

Healing will happen,all in good time.

It is normal to have these feelings, your body is going thru some major changes right now. It will get better, I promise. I was a little tired the first two weeks but I feel amazing now, sooo much more energy.

Thank you everyone for the feedback. I just have this feeling like something is wrong. Took a 10 min shower this morning and I felt like I had been power walking for two hours. I hope it's just my bodys way of recovering

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
