So I was sleeved 2 weeks ago today and my surgeon is super strict he only wants me to have water, no vitamins, no protien, no broth just plain water! And it is working I'm already down 20 lbs but I'm so tired all the time its so hard to get any exercise in and I feel guilty all the time for being hungry! everyone says its just in my head but its not! Is any of this normal? Did anyone else go through this? Sent from my SM-J727P using BariatricPal mobile app

Please no mean comments I'm really down on myself right now as is Sent from my SM-J727P using BariatricPal mobile app

He did say water only he said the body can sustain just fine for 3 weeks and its head hunger. And maybe he was right because there were no issues with my blood tests. But he also said that I can start full liquids at 3 weeks which is now! And at first I was super excited but now I'm scared I tried tomato soup today and it was so good but I don't know how much to eat I am so scared of failure that I don't want to try anything does anyone know how I can measure is it supposed to be 2 oz or 3? I don't want to stall my weight loss I've never had any regrets about my decision to have surgery and I don't see the dr again till end of July I just need some suggestions or tips from people that have been here Sent from my SM-J727P using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you for the suggestions everyone! Its so good to hear I'm not going crazy!!! I'm gonna have a talk with him tomorrow so cross your fingers Sent from my SM-J727P using BariatricPal mobile app

He's Romanian I think, and he's a very successful surgeon I did my homework and he has very high success rates. The nutritionist is surprised that he has said only water and she told me to ask him tomorrow (we have my 2 week post op) I'm usually pretty shy and dont speak up but if he doesn't let me have something else I might start crying! Thats how frustrated I am! Im moody, I have headaches, and I always need a nap throughout the day. I was on the treadmill the other day and when I finished I had to hold on to the wall because I thought I was gonna pass out! Some say its good to cleanse your system and the first week I was fine and I bought excellent vitamins and isopure drinks and everything else I can have thats clear I'm just waiting to hear its ok Sent from my SM-J727P using BariatricPal mobile app

I dont know he said something about shocking my metabolism but he wants me to be active also and its so hard with no energy Sent from my SM-J727P using BariatricPal mobile app

So I am getting sleeved on 6/6 which is almost here, and now it has definitely hit me I'm terrified!! I can't sleep!! I'm so worried about every aspect of the surgery!! I'm on day 18 of a liquid only pre op diet and that doesn't even bother me anymore! I'm determined to go through with it I just could really use some words of wisdom!
