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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

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