Just wanted to see if anyone had any advice... I am about 3 1/2 weeks post op and am extremely tired. I started back to work this week, working just 1/2 days. I go home and take a nap, I am in bed by 830 or 9pm and have been struggling to wake by 630 or 7. Is this normal or ? I am getting all my Vitamins, still struggling with Protein but that is getting better every day! Just a little frustrated today. I am feeling good otherwise, just don't have the energy to do anything this week!!!

I was exhausted for a long time. By week six you will probably feel more like yourself again.

I'm 3 weeks post op and I completely understand how you feel. Seems like I'm sleeping close to 12 hours a day between the night and naps. Trying to get my calories and Protein up but it's hard when you can only eat so much at once. Hoping each day gets a tiny bit better!!! <== She types as she nods off. :rolleyes:

I was too exhausted. However, since doing research and talking to people about Vitamins ect. I found out that majority of vitamins are only 8-10% absorbable. I started taking Zija Moringa in about month 4 or 5 post op and feel amazingly better. It's organic and 100% bioavalability (absorbed). If your on FB you can go to page of, Moringa's Ninety Nutrients for more info. I swear by it, it's the best of the best. There are two people that I know for sure started taking it from here and both feel the same way I do about it. I no longer have to take any vitamins or give myself B12 injections. Zija has every Vitamin from a-z.

Is it a liquid Vitamin or ?? I struggle with my Multivitamins... Having tried several with lots of nausea! Is this the only thing you have to take now?

I have to take my Vitamins five times a day. It's oh so fun. Didn't know there were other options!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
