Protein, water and vitamins are your best friend. I'm just assuming your on liquids?? Maybe? You didn't say what food stage your on.

Same here I'm thinking about ordering some Genepro unflavored protein and just put it in everything. I'm hoping that helps with the fatigue.

Are you taking your vitamins? Did your Dr give you a vitamin b-12 shot to help with energy?

It does get better. I remember falling asleep everywhere in the first 1-3 weeks. I'm now at the end of week 5 and am feeling great. So much energy I only need about 5 hours of sleep. B12 Vitamins help so much. Dr. had me order Jarrow B-12 from Amazon. The 3rd week I started taking 2 a day. One at 6 am and one at noon. By the end of that week, my energy was up. Don't forget the protein!

B12 shot?? What's that my doctor told my to take a multi vitamin daily

From what I gather some doctor's recommend a complete battery of vitamins, similar to what bypass patients take and others just recommend a multi-vitamin. Often the ones I see complaining of low energy are just taking multi-vitamins. It's because the sleeve is still relatively new so there's no definitive answer just yet. I would recommend adding the non flavored protein to the soup to make it more hearty. You can also buy sublingual B12 at the local drug store.

This is more of a question than a reply..... anyone else having issues with taking iron supplmnts? when I take it I get the shakes...dizzy..queezy..etc.

I don't take iron supplements, but I do take B12 sublingual.
