Hi. I was sleeved the same day as you. I am very week. I also had my lap band and port removed the same day so I am very sore. I'm tired of tv especially the food commercials. I'm so afraid of drinking too much or not enough. I wish a bariatric nurse could come home with us. I am probably getting about 40 grams of Protein in from Isopure drinks. I am hoping that once we start puréed we will feel stronger. Take care.

Fatigue was a real issue for me for about 2 months post-op. I found that making myself get up and go walking really did help. Now, at 3 months post-op, it isn't an issue for me any more. It will get better. Please make sure you are meeting your Water goals, even if you have to sip constantly all day. (That will probably make you feel better as well.) Water and Protein consumption really is a full-time job early on.

Good luck!

I was sleeved on the 24th. My energy is great. Are you taking your Vitamins and all your supplements? To me they do help. Also, sipping all day does help.

From what I know, you are still healing and can only increase your intake very slowly. You are probably burning right through the small amount of calories you take in. It will take some time for this part of the process but, I promise you, it will get better and you will be able to eat more and have tons of energy! Everyone heals differently, so be patient (if you can...if know it's hard)
