Hey guys, I'm about 5 weeks post op and I find that I'm very tired all the time. I sleep at night, but have trouble getting up in the morning and lack motivation to get out of bed. Before surgery I was doing amazing: getting up early and hitting the gym 4-5 times a week. I'm lucky if I make it 2 times now. FYI I'm still mostly liquid for diet with occasional yogurt. Thoughts?

MrsGreaves. Not to sound gross but have you had a BM? In the beginning that can cause you to hold weight.
20 in the first week is amazing, I think I lost 10. I'm also stuck but I'm in week 4. I had to find a different Protein because I became very intolerant of the shakes.
You've heard it before but I'll say it anyways: make sure you are getting your Water and protein in this healing phase too

You may not be getting enough calories either. Focus on tracking as the others said and make sure that you aren't still sitting in the 700-900 range. You should easily be up in the 1200 range

Hi guys! Well after over a year of battles with the insurance beasts I finally got my sleeve surgery. Had it at HFH downtown Detroit with Dr. Carlin and I feel it was super successful. Met some great ladies in the process who were there for surgery too.
