I hate the way I feel

Hey everyone, I feel so uncomfortable . I have lost 42 pounds since my sleeve 11/27/12 . But I'm so weak and I take the multivitamin plus the b12. Everything I try to eat makes me extremely nauseous . Does it get easier ? I need a light at the end of this tunnel honestly . When will I feel like myself again ?

I was sleeved 12/5 and I have lost 22lbs. I do not feel weak ever. Are you getting your protein and fluids. Have you discussed this with your doctor?

I think it would be best to contact your Bariatric team as they know your medical condition. Better to be safe than sorry. Hope you feel better soon

I also feel pretty weak and tired. I had my sleeve 12/19 and also feel uncomfortable when I eat. I do get my water, protein, and all my vitamins in every day. Some days I feel like I just can't put one foot in front of the other! I'm sure hoping this passes soon! I'm also interested if anyone else has had this experience?

How are your Iron levels?

Hi so sorry you arent feeling well. Everyone recovers from surgery differently. I am hoping to have my surgery soon

and I was very fearful of not feeling well and being nausous all the time. I would recommend talking with your doctor and

nutritionist. I only know 2 people that have had this surgery and both are feeling well after 5 weeks or so. Good Luck,

Amy

I couldn't agree more I'm 4 weeks out and today I had a half of protein shake and half a Greek yogurt and that's it. Everything makes me feel sick. It bums me out I'm depressed and weepy because I have no energy to handle my 4 little ones. I wish I knew it would get better!

I am 5 months out now and it truly does get better. I remember feeling bad for weeks and never thinking I would have energy again. My turning point was at 3 months out. One day things just got easier and they have been improving ever since. Rest, drink as much as you can and eat the right foods. If something does not agree with your sleeve, don't eat it for a week or two. Try new foods, don't eat the same thing each day. I still cannot drink protein drinks or milk but I can handle most other food now. It really is one day at a time.

Maybe you're eating too fast.....I haven't had much protein either..but I try to get on as much as I can in my foods....if I don't have anything else I eat protein and take vitamins.....all Protein shakes are garbage to me....buy a small thing of Welch's grape juice...drink maybe 2-4 oz..it has a 38grams of sugar but its all natural..it will make the sluggish feeling history.
