I am three weeks post op and having a hard time with recovering after getting pneumonia 2 days after surgery. I am so tired all the time I have been trying to make myself get up get dressed and do the grocery shopping house chores it's just so hard. I leave the house for two hours get home and sleep three hours. Not sure if it's the pneumonia that has me so tired or the surgery ? I drink my Water I have Protein Shakes and today I started yogurt and puréed fruit. I'm just venting because I hate being so tired. I do have a follow up with the Dr Wednesday the 6th.

Well, that's enough to make anyone feel down. Hang in there, I think you will quickly start to feel much better once the infection passes. Good luck!

Good grief. I'd say you are doing great. I am still napping some days (2 weeks out) and I didn't even have pneumonia. Give yourself time to heal and regain your strength. And be kind to healing your body. And try not to be so hard on yourself! You're doing awesome!

      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.
