Hello everyone, I had my sleeve on June 4th and I'm down 115 lbs. Never in my life did I think I would lose the weight so fast. I started my diet 3 weeks pre op so the weight has come off in about 13 weeks.ive gone from a size 50 waist to a 40 waist and a 4 xl shirt to a xl. I'm struggling though with fatigue . I'm taking vitamins and I've seen my DR. But no mention of anything . I Aliso found myself a nutritionist and her advice was protein 3 times a day no matter what. As a lot of you know that is easier said than done. Any advice that's worked for others?

Wow that's great weight loss. I didn't start feeling better and more energy till I was able to eat soft food and more solids I still have days where I'm very tired but it has gotten much better

No wonder you are so tired! Your body is working overtime to burn your weight off! You are my hero!!! How the heck did you do it???? Amazing!!!

Try drinking more water.

It really helps.

Also working out more. It seems counterintuitive but it works like a charm.

@@Bryce Juneau Sr. Are you taking a B vitamin? If not get some. Losing rapid amounts of weight is rough on the body, it's trying to keep up so you can expect some fatigue, rest when you can.

I think that's the fastest I've EVER heard of anyone losing after WLS.

That is so not normal.

For one thing, your kidneys must be exhausted just pumping out all the waste products from weight loss.

Be sure you drink, drink, drink, drink, drink Water.

And at your rate of weight loss, you should be eating some carbs for energy.

I hope your nutritionist is a good one.

well guys things are going pretty good. Although i did end up in the E.R. with side pain and found out that i will need to have my gallbladder removed due to the rapid loss of weight.Im currently at 280 from 391 so still losing but it has slowed down a bit. Thank you all for your comments

My surgeon prescribed gallbladder medicine for post op. My surgery is Wednesday.

I had my sleeve November 12th. I'm down 120lbs total. It's a roller coaster and I feel tired as well. I've adjusted vitamins but still the same tired. I'm sure it will get better soon.

Wow! Your weight loss is incredible!! For my protein, I do one shake per day of ISO 100 (I buy it on Amazon because its cheaper) and I also eat a protein bar called Pure Protein every day. The shake has 28 grams of protein and the bar has 20 so between the 2 things I get 48 grams just in those not counting my food intake is getting me to my protein goals. For the fatigue, are you drinking caffeine at all? I stopped all caffeine at the time of surgery and I work out regularly and do the protein and I rarely feel tired now. Try those things and see if it helps! Good luck!
