Im well over 2 months out. Get urself some sos sachets and mix it with Water and get them down you, they helped me alot inthe early days. You're most likley low in potassium and dehydrated thats why you're feeling weak. They can be purchased on Amazon.

Well, i am 6 weeks post op on Monday coming, I've noticed old habits are creeping back in and i find myself munching on slider foods, I can't seem to get all my fluids in or don't kniw what i can cook for myself that would be easy. Im eating slider foods such as crisps,chocos,cake and custards etc only because it's easier to grab and easy to eat. I really need to get back into it. 2 weeks and I've stayed the same weight :'(

Hey why don't you get yourself a hot Water bottle or even put on some extra layers or fleecy pjs in bed as that's what helps me. Also get some electrolytes in you. Sos is what i use. I add a sachet of sos powder in 500ml water bottle and I'm good.

I was the one who kept a fan blowing even inthe winter months, but since WLS i have been freezing cold, nothing can warm me up, i wear a full fleece pj set, thick socks and gloves to bed with heated blankets and heated fitted sheet with 3 large hot Water bottles. My feet especially hurt the most as they're so cold, it's lack of blood circulation inthe hands and feet that's causing the issue, i do want to go see a doctor soon but covid and all that everything is over the phone so hoping to call soon for a telephone conversation and see what she thinks. It is worrying and makes me panic at times as i just seem so cold all the time and i was NEVER like this. Im 4weeks post op have lost 35 pounds in 4weeks so could be that there's less fat

Hey i am 4weeks post op on Monday, if you can't keep up with Protein don't worry as long you drinking enough fluids ideally with electrolytes as I think that's why you feel weak because of dehydration. Get electrolyte powder and add to ur Water with water flavouring or squash, drink apple juice and any juices you like, have yogurts and make urself some meat/poultry broths and have about 3oz of that at each sitting ideally aim for 5meals aday and you will be okay.

Hi I'm nearly 4weeks out, have you tried mashed potatoes with ketchup or creamcheese? Weigh about 3oz and eat that, even fishcakes but don't eat the batter, have electrolytes power mixed on your drinks as thats what helped me with my energy levels, also have cheese triangles and small pots of yogurts throughout the day and sip on electrolyte drinks.

I had a sleeve, but get those pains, you need to remember that your muscles were ripped through to get to your organs and you need to be resting and not walking too much, let your body heal and only walk 20mins aday

I was at the bmi 33 before i decided to have this surgery and now i regret it every single day, I'm always hungry but can barely eat or enjoy my meals. It sucks! I just wish i could turn back time and never have had this surgery. It gets easier with time i know as many have said that to me but why do i feel i rushed into it without really thinking.

Have your portion sizes increased alot or have you been eating throughout the day? I'm on 3weeks out and that's what scares me the most

I have a BMI of 32. I have called a few places in my state (Utah) and they all say I need to have a BMI of 35 or higher. I know that I will have to pay out of pocket, but I am having a hard time finding somewhere that will do the surgery for a sleeve with BMI 32. Where have you had your surgeries?

Hi!
At only 3 week's post op, it's possible that nerves in your digestive system are not fully functional yet, so you don't have the ability to feel fullness or restriction. That may change in time.
Try to stick to the measurements your Team has advised (e.g. 1/8, 1/4 cup over a 30 minute period) to prevent dramatically increasing your intake ahead of schedule.
Over time your portion sizes may increase, but not usually to pre surgery sizes.
Good Luck [emoji3531]

I never noticed this before having WLS two years ago, but now no matter what I eat, whether it's spicy or bland or a little or a lot my nose runs constantly while I eat.
When I stop eating the nose stops running.
Now that I think about it, it doesn't seem to happen when I eat cold food, just hot food.< br> And I'm not over-eating and am sticking to proper portion sizes. For instance, I just ate 5 microwaved pieces of pepperoni and my nose ran constantly. I'm done eating now and my nose isn't running anymore.
I searched online and it says allergic rhinitis is a possible culprit. Has anybody else experienced this after having weight loss surgery that they didn't have before?
Why does your nose run Everytime you eat? A person's nose might run after eating if they have allergic Rhinitis

Inflammation and irritation of the mucous membrane of the nose.

caused by a food allergy. A person may experience a runny nose and other symptoms either after eating a particular kind of food or, in some cases, after eating any food. A runny nose may be accompanied by the following symptoms: a stuffy, congested feeling in the nose

I had surgery but i am 3weeks out but noticed my portion sizes have increased and i find little restriction? Anyone else inthe same boat and if so are you able to eat how u used to before? I mean i wish i researched properly before going ahead with this i already feel like i have failed.

Every surgeon is different, I'm 3 weeks out and having lentils, legumes, mashed potatoes with cream cheese, mashed carrots with a little butter. Lots of different Soups and smoothies. Just try alittle and see how it makes you feel, also make sure there's no lumps just a thin consistency. I didnt bother with Protein Shakes i can't stand the taste of them eughh

Hey it's week 3 for me and i was exactly the same, there were times when I regretted ever getting this surgery done, but week 3 and i feel so much better, just sip your fluids throughout the day and make sure it's not just Water as that will lower ur electrolytes in yoir body so drink apple juice, ribena etc too. Ur 3days out so drink broths, lentils, thinned out Soups etc and then from week 2 you can start purée meals. Stop drinking 15mins before meals and then resume sipping 30mins after meals. It gets easier hang in there.
