    I can't imagine how your labs are normal with this diet.
    Do you vomit if you eat meat? What about fruits and cooked vegetables?
    You need to see your surgeon or a new doctor immediately.
    This is not normal and your lack of energy is sign of malnutrition. To me it sounds like you have a stricture which can be treated

    Call your surgeon as soon as possible. Something isn't right.

    Well, I had gastric sleeve surgery on March 8, 2017, and I don't have any energy either. I can eat a small amount of fish and some vegetables if they are very soft. I'm taking my Vitamins and I, too, have problems drinking enough Water. I was hoping it would get better as time passed, but you are still dealing with these problems a year after surgery! My prayers are with you and I hope you find a doctor that can give you some good advice. Please share what you learn!

    Sorry you are going through this. I was sleeved march 13th and have not had this issue. I do struggle with getting more than 50oz of liquid.

    Call your surgeon. You might be having some nutritional deficiencies (B Vitamins , Iron and Magnesium)

    I would say that since your surgery was recent, it is not abnormal to lack energy or motivation. Your body suffered major trauma and it is readjusting. Couple that with dealing with adjusting to changing meal plans and learning to embrace the changes, it tasks the body. Then there is the malnutrition aspect.
    I found some exercise to be of some use in lifting my mood. However, I was nutrient deficient too. Some Multivitamin and B 12 and I was up and running again.
    I hope you feel better soonest.

    See your primary if your surgeon & nutritionist aren't helping you, truly it sounds like you are malnourished. Try baby food if you can't stomach any real food but I'd definitely go talk to someone I can't imagine anyone telling you that what your eating is good for you, sorry [emoji52]

    What's limiting your ability to eat a full diet? Is it nausea, or do you vomit? And the same regarding liquids...do you have physical symptoms or do you just not drink enough? I 'struggle' with my liquids every day, but the struggle is getting my head to remember that I need to drink, not that Water bothers me.

    I find myself wanting to eat easy foods and repeating the same foods over and over...it takes effort to say 'no, not having yogurt for Breakfast, cook an egg'.

    You really need a visit with your surgical team/dietician to get you moved on to a wider range of foods. Your labs may be WNL now, but your body is telling you that you're not fueling it appropriately.
