happycamper06 got a reaction from big country1 in 1.5 weeks post op, feeling down
I had my sleeve Oct 21. I am not sure what I expected but recovery has been harder than I thought it would be. I am losing great, down 26lbs since liquid diet (2 weeks prior).
Just so tired right now! Really sick of Protein Shakes at the moment as well. Missing actual food that doesn't taste like chocolate/ vanilla/ etc. Guess I am just feeling whiney tonight.
When does energy start to come back?

I had my sleeve Oct 25, and I also am down 26lbs since pre op liquid diet. I have been extremely hungry the last cpl days, craving anything but a Protein shake. Hope this passes soon. Sent from my SM-G900R4 using the BariatricPal App

chicken broth really helped me during that phase. I needed something savory desperately bad. Good luck. It'll get better.

I am right there with you! Sleeved a week ago. Recovery has been challenging for sure. My tummy rumbles all day - it's painful at times. Everyone says we will get through this - it's just hard to see that right now for sure.

The first month is really hard specially if you had more than one surgery at once I had a hiatal hernia repair and it was more complicated swallowing. I'm one month today and someday sate good and some are bad, it takes a fully two months I think to get better, eat healthy, the cravings to go away. Give it time it will get better.

@@happycamper06 Your hormones are all out of whack too and making things look worse. Hang in there! See if there's something savory you can have instead.

Chin up, it does get better! I didn't start getting my energy back until 3-4 weeks post op. Just remember that this part is temporary, and vital to your healing process.

Lay on your back and do slight pelvic tilts will help and then rest on your left. It will move the gas along. Walking is very helpful. Take your pain meds, don't try to tough it out!!!! Good sleep will help the healing! Every day is better than the day before. In a week you'll wonder what the fuss was all about. Anticlimactic and almost surreal. Flew by so fast! I'm 6 months out this week coming up and It's been amazing!

I am feeling much better this morning, never so happy to fart!
I didn't have to stay overnight at the hospital, home at 6pm the same day
