Recommended Posts

I think i went back to work way too early.

originally took 5 weeks off and went back after 2 weeks.

i am freezing pretty much all the time. hands and feet especially.

and i am exhausted. really tired especially after work.

i am drinking plenty of Water and getting my Protein in.

anyone else going through this?

all in all i've lost 55lbs including the 20lbs i lost preo-op so i know i've lost a few layers

I'm 6 months out and am cold all the time (I used to be hot all the time), As for tired. I still have tired days sometimes. It's a hugh change on our bodies, it takes a toll. But other days I feel awesome. Just seem to tire easily sometimes still...

Completely normal. And with time it will get back to your norma normal. Except the cold part.. It's a major complaint for a lot of us and sounds like it will probably last forever.. I'd rather be cold than fat so no biggy for me ;)

I take monthly B12 shots. It helps me when I feel a lack of energy. And yes, I'm always cold, unless I'm in the middle of a hot flash! Ugghh.

I am four weeks out and I am finding that I am cold most of the time as well. I will take that any day though over the constantly being hot and drippy with sweat!

2.5 months. Freezing cold. Can't wait for summer where this will be an asset. I've always run hot my whole life but since immediately after sleeve, cold cold cold. Metabolism must be shutting down to conserve energy. Stupid tricky body...

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
