I'm 10 days out and experiencing weakness and exhaustion. Has anyone gone through this?

You need to remember that you just had major surgery! I think because this surgery is done laparoscopically that we tend to forget just how major it is..

Yes at 10 days out I was still very weak and tired,

I would have to say it took me a good month to feel pretty "normal" again.

Be nice to yourself and take the time to heal.

Yep I was napping a few times a day. When I went back to work at 2 wks I still came home and napped.

I can only be up few minutes at a time it started yesterday...

How's you Water intake? Are you drinking Protein also?

I went through that, too. I upped my protein and it really, really helped! You'll get through it! Good luck!

Well that's a good start! The water I mean right now keeping hydrated is really important. A lot of people end up back in the hospital because they are dehydrated.

You may want to water your shakes down or buy something that has more of a fruit juice taste GNC I believe has some Protein drinks that are fruit flavored or even flavorless that you can add into your own flavored water.

How about some cream of chicken soup mixed with some milk (strained of course) .. you can add some nonfat dry milk in there as well for extra protein. Anything to give you some umph
