15 days post op sleeve and super weak!



Recommended Posts

I've been doing everything by the book taking down 60 grams of Protein 60 ounces of Water and 3 ounces of pureed food I am still very weak I just feel like just chugging an apple juice or something but I don't want to dump so I don't do it I just I just need something to just kind of give me the strength to just be able to just walk around the house and not feel so weak and tired while I heal. I'm afraid that when I do go back to work on the 11th of January that I'm not going to be able to work cause of all this weakness everyday is a struggle with the weakness in the weakness gives me anxiety and I feel like it's because my glucose levels are low does anyone else experienced this and does it ever go away?

I am 13 days post-op and the crazy thing is I did not have this tired feeling the first week. Now I am super tired all the time. I was winded just getting ready for church this morning, and disappointed my family by opting to go home. I heard that it is a phase that we just have to go through and it will pass once our bodies adjust from the surgery have and the reduced calorie intake. When I have the feeling for a little something different i have a sugar free popsicle and i just rest, i fugure the body must need it. Wishing you all the best.

      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.
