You may need to eat or you ate the wrong thing. If you are on blood pressure meds still this can happen too

sounds weird but try drinking some coconut juice not a whole bottle but sips of it everyday it will help get your electrolytes up.

even though I feel extremely weak I can barely move the funny thing is when I go to the gym all of a sudden I have all this energy. it might be the man in there lol

I said call you doctor to get blood work done bc you may be low in something or (s)he may be able to prescribe you something , it's better to get a doctors opinion then your own , I'm not sure why you are being rude but I READ what you wrote , if you read everyone's response I'm not the only one suggesting you call your doctor ...

have you ever heard of the saying you know your body almost as well as any other person. well that's me I'm not the type of person to sit around and wait for doctors appointments to fix myself . I go and I do my research. if you see me now or before you couldn't tell I was obese because I didn't have any kind of health problems I am tall my weight is equal portions and I work out in a gym everyday. the reason I got this surgery it's because it cost so much to buy my clothes plus I feel like even though I'm healthy I didn't wanna take a chance on getting high blood pressure diabetes or cancer which runs in my family. I'm not being rude I'm just been real about who I am because I didn't ask for help I just gave my opinion of how I was feeling. I know if I'm feeling weak is either because I didn't eat enough of something or I just need to move. and if that doesn't work I will call my doctor by Doctor would be my last resort. I'm a Google phonetic.

Which I understand it just takes time what kind if Protein do you use ? Everyone seems to be weak after surgery until their body heals but def I do google as well but call my doctor for stuff I can't test myself since I'm not a Nurse or have a Medical Degree nor do I wait on a doctors appt my surgeon does same day appts but I've never heard a doctor clearing someone without any health issues this surgery or any illness and moat who have the surgery are obese with at least diabetes , high cholesterol, sleep apnea or combination of both on top of obesity but each doctor is different as I have seen on here , so you shouldn't have any problem recovering lovely ....When did you have surgery?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
