You're not the only one with low energy. You can add me to the list, but I had low energy long before the surgery. I think my problem is the combination of sleep apnea and COPD that keeps me from getting enough rest/oxygen.

I feel like crap a lot...but than I also feel okay a lot of the time. I tend to vomit a lot, Im having acid issues in my baby tummy. Which causes me to feel dizzy a lot and lightheaded. With all of that said, I still wouldnt trade not having the surgery,some days I really miss eating like a normal person, but than I remeber my starting weight and size, and where I am right now, and it replaces the head hunger. Im glad to be getting healthy, even if it means having a baby tummy for life.

You guys don't understand how happy I am reading these. Everyone always posts about good things. I thought I was the only one. Although I do not vomit my stomach feels funny most of the time. I also can barely fit anything in my stomach without feeling uncomfortable. My lightheadedness got a bit better, but now I have lost feeling from my ankles to under my belly button. Spoke to the Doc and I need to start taking thiamine. I love my results, but this is really hard. I need to start working soon and It takes me a while to get going. Just unsure of what to do.

I think the stomach thing for me got better around 5 months.. I feel pretty good with eating no more queasiness. As for the exhaustion I'm hopeful that I will be back to normal in a couple of months, it's a big thing we did to our bodies and I think for some if us, it takes longer to rebound.

      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.
