You should talk to your doctor about that. Everyone's diet is different, so what's good for one may not be good for the other. My doctor required 5 days post op of Clear Liquids and then 2 weeks of shakes. Don't take anyone but your doctors advice unordered to ensure you are properly following their guidelines. I'm 10 days post op and hungry also. Keep pushing, you WILL get through this!

Listen to your doctor but get your butt out of bed. That I can tell you. A bed is not your friend after surgery.

Walk as much as you can but don't over do it. Everyone is different the day of surgery I went to Target and walgreens the next day work. yesterday the mall. Once you start walking it feels so much better the most painful part is starting to walk right out of bed but be strong and hang in there

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
