Thanks. I hope it passes quickly for me as well.
Ugh! I remember that phase. I would get winded just washing my hair and had no energy left to fix it. Went to work some days looking like death! It passed pretty quickly for me, though. Just work on meeting your Water and Protein goals and soon you will be stronger!
I'm in the same boat. Band to sleeve conversion 9/12 and I am dragging! Even taking a shower and raising my arms to wash my hair is exhausting. I'm going to start B12 injections to see if this helps any.I seem to be so tired here lately. Any recommendations on what I can do to help that? Sleeve 9/12/16

Tuna and crackers at 2 1/2 weeks post op? That alone is a scary thought. Anyway the way my surgeon explained the sleeve to me is that everyone goes into surgery with different stomach sizes, but everyone comes out of surgery with the same size stomach/sleeve. Apparently they place a standard size tube into your tummy to size your sleeve up and then remove the "extra" part of the stomach, seal it up and of course remove that measuring tube thingy. I feel the same as you though. Water and shakes go down very easily and I don't really feel full. I'm not at all worried though because liquid just slides on through. BUT I do wonder when I start puréed foods if I will begin to feel that full sensation. I'm 16 days post op and still have about 14 days to go before I reach that stage.I am 2 1/2 weeks out from surgery. I've been worried since day one that my sleeve isn't tight enough. I've been able to drink Water and get Protein shakes down with absolutely no problem from day 2 on! Today I ate a can of those little Bumble Bee Lemon Pepper tuna Kits (comes in a 3 oz cans with 5 crackers). I ate half of it, and then 50 minutes later ate the other half. Does this sound like too much? I don't feel like I over ate at all. I feel comfortable. The reason it makes me nervous is because I have my cousin and my best friend, who also was sleeved, tell me there's no way they could have ever eaten that much only 2 1/2 weeks post op. Makes me feel like I won't be as successful as them. I had a total of 3.5 oz of food in an hour time span. Am I freaking out for nothing? LOL
