First day down on my.preop diet and not really hungry, but I'm so tired. Has any one else experienced this?

It may be mental, because it is a scary process that may have you more upset than you think you are. I remember being very nervous, especially about my husband who had so many co-morbidities. Hang in there! The surgery and recovery was 10 times easier than we anticipated. I feel 20 years younger with 60 lbs. gone. I promise it will get better!

Yes, it is normal. Just try to keep up with your liquid and Protein intake. If you become dehydrated it will definately make you feel tired.

Daw,

Sorry you're tired. I'm June 2nd...tomorrow at 5:45 am I will be on my way. I'm curious, What apps did you find that have been helpful?

Thanks again,

Jenn

Water your body -lets me track how much liquid I'm taking in

Protein Tracker- let's you track how many grams of Protein your taking in

I also used one called "eat slower" while preparing to help me learn to slow down while eating

Good luck tomorrow

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
