I have done really well with hunger issues thru the 2 week liquid diet, and post op so far. Today I am feeling like I want food, but it's not a horrible feeling. Woke up with a migraine, and it's better. Pain from surgery is doing great. I just feel BLAH! I just want to be in bed and sleep it away. Is this normal. I don't really feel depressed, but blah. Losing weight amazingly, following instructions to the t.

It was normal for me! I day 5 I posted I had reached a "I feel like crap" day. With no specific explanation day six was great and day 7 was bad again. The only motivation was the steady weight ticking off scale. I think these first few weeks are just going to be that way.

It happened to me randomly a few times. But I'm much better the next day

You will get out of that funky feeling. You'll see....Hang in there!

Totally normal. For about the first week and a half (I'm three weeks out now), I felt "blah," too. Just no energy, couldn't concentrate on anything. By the time I went back to work at the end of the second week, I was feeling much better, though still tired.

Thanks all, I was hoping it was all part of the process.

This is very very normal! Your body is recovering, and I don't know about others, but the residual pain meds from surgery had me sluggish for a solid week. I would wake up, and feel like I could nap for 3 more hours (and I did that a few times) but don't forget, although it's a chore, get yourself up and walking every hour for about 10 minutes. This will definitely help with energy. Other than that, you'll start gaining your energy when you have protein shakes and soups. Totally normal to feel depressed and out of it, just don't let yourself cacoon in bed for weeks. Your body is recovering from the shock of surgery, so you have to put in the work to stay hyrdrated, get the protein shakes down, and get enough rest. Hope you feel better soon!!

Exactly what happened to me.

Monday (6/22) was surgery day

Tuesday was released from the hospital, just sore, no pain or nausea

Wednesday I felt like the life was sucked out of me, no energy

Thursday I felt like what little life I had on Wed had been sucked out

Friday, I felt like I had returned to the land of the living.

Saturday, I can honestly say I was at 85-90%

.....and it's gotten better every day

Hang in there!

Hey everyone. I had surgery front at 1030 this morn. Pain was high after waking up but isn't bad not. So thankful to be done. I'm drugged up. Praying your surgeries all go this well

Welcome to the losers' bench!

Yeah pretty normal. I felt like crap until after two weeks. Everyone is different though
