oops. I'm 10 weeks

Shersun,

Re: tired ... me too! I haven't even walked! Have no energy. My Iron was checked and is fine now wondering if it's the winter lazies. Anyone else lacking energy?

Bonus:

Kick-ass Protein snack

1pk Jello pudding (I use butterscotch as I find it masks the unfl PP best)

2c almond milk

4 sc unfl Protein powder Freeze in Jello molds. 70 cals and 15 gr Protein.< /p>

Someone wrote that their Dr said that the fatigue can last up to 3 mo's.

I had to stop taking the Iron since it was really constipating me. All the other Vitamins I have no problem with.

I guess the fatigue will lessen as time goes on......I hope

Anyone else have the fatigue? I hope we're not the only 2 Water Nazi.

I went to my 8 week check up. I got my 50lb loss pin. I am still so motivated. I keep seeing changes and progress. Protein is my best friend. I need to go buy clothes, but not until this cold and snow stop around here!

      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.
