Yes this happens to me . Are you getting enough Protein in how about Water and just plane food are you getting enough.

I was like this for about 3-4 weeks and every now and then I still run out of energy

Have you tried any of the whey Proteins or if you don't like them there is a egg Protein Powder you can get. I have never tryed it I stick with

carnation instant Breakfast no sugar added its 150 calories with 8 oz of skim milk has 8 carbs and 26 g of protein. I like the taste that's just my opinion.

A lot of people on this Fourm use powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury protein powder unflavored. I have never tryed it

Good luck

I am 2 weeks out as well and feel completely drained.I have no energy. I thought the first week was just because I was still on Clear liquids no Protein, no vitaments. This past monday i started puree's and Protein supplements. First i thoughtit was not getting enough fluids and kicked those up. Im getting apprx 50 grams of protein. Its a full time job calculation and keeping tract of how much I have had to drink and my protein.

My goal today is to focus on the fluids and add protein to what i can.

I use the unjury brand and the opurity Vit's and did not have any trouble with the taste pre or post op.

As a side - My daughter (26 yo) asked me to make her a holloween outfit ..... since im home not doing anything. All I could do is smile and grit my teeth.

      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.
