Weak and shaky

[minnie78 17]

Hello!! Ingot sleeved on Saturday feb 16th and today I woke up shaky and feeling weak. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong? Did this happen to anybody out there?

This happens to me if I did not get enough Protein or fluids the day before, if you did though I would call your dr to be safe.

How many Protein Shakes would u drink per day??

[johnlatte 1,232]

Typically - Low blood sugar, dehydration and low consumption of Protein. Give your Dr or Nutritionist a call and see what they say.

You should be following what your Dr. told you for your Protein consumption. Every Dr. does it differently. Typically it is between 40-60 grams of protein. Doesn't have to be all shakes unless you are on liquids only.

Yes I'm on liquids only and I really think it's that im taking enough Proteins. Thank u so much for ur help:)

I'm not taking enough protein.*

Happened to me about 4 days post op. Some Protein helped tremendously. But when in doubt check with your surgeon and nut

What Protein Shake do u recommend?

Minnie, premier Protein seems to be a winner on the boards. I love them as well.

Messaging you

I have had this same problem for 5 weeks. But I was unable to get fluids or food down, only around 2 oz at a time. My surgeon just did an EGD yesterday to stretch open parts of my sleeve that had narrowed too much. Trying increasing your Fluid and Protein intake that should help.

Minimum is 50 grams.
