Exhausted and Weak Forever?



Recommended Posts

I am 3 months post op. When will this exhaustion and weakness end? My stamina is zilch, I tire so easily. Is part of the problem the lack of adequate food and liquid? ?? I just cannot physically get very much in. I try to make myself eat more but I am afraid of stretching out my stomach! Anyway, is anyone else having this problem?? Will it get better?? Should I be this tired and weak three months from surgery??

      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...

        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.
