I had my surgery 9/11 so I'm 4 days out trying to get all my liquids in but I'm sooooo tired. Help! I take a shower and that wipes me out completely. Besides the tiredness and weakness I'm feeling fine!

I was sleeved on 9/12 & I feel the same way but that's normal, we did just have major surgery & our bodies are having to adjust... I'm taking pain pills, laying down & then getting up & walking... Are you taking any Vitamins or Protein shakes??? Tiredness will subside after a while...

I am not a professional and I have NOT had my sleeve YET (Friday). When I started my pre-op diet, I was tired, just no strength in my muscle. I was talking to someone they said it was because of the low carbs (carbs give you energy). He said to take B-12. I've been taking sublingual B-12 5000 mcg cherry flavor, it's made me feel better. You can buy it at Wal-mart.

What does it mean to take it sublingual? I have the shots but don't know how to take it? Meaning how many CC's?

Sublingual means let it dissolve under your tongue.

I'm sooooo tired. Help!. Besides the tiredness and weakness I'm feeling fine!

some NEWBIES arrive home from the hospital and feel better quickly, within a couple of days, or a week - some are back to work

that being said many, many others need to rest,rest, rest and need to rest some more.

you did have major surgery - and you need to give your body time to recuperate - being tired and weak..... that is part of the game

take in as much liquid in as you can - very important

feel better soon

get ready now to start your new long journey with the sleeve

Wait....a doctor gave you shots, as in injections, and didn't explain what to do??

You are not taking in many calories. Your body is trying to survive on your fat stores and yes can be tired. I am day 5 out and still feel a little weak. I am sure when I can start having shakes it will get better

Same thing had my surgery on the 10th. Apprently day by day you will feel better just dont push yourself relax as much as you can, as most say here 6weeks till your stomach gets healed. Best of luck
