Pre-Op Really Really Tired!



Recommended Posts

I started my 2-week pre-op diet on Thursday:

A.M.: pick two of the following: fruit, Cereal, oatmeal, egg, toast

Noon: Protein Shake (may use milk/soy milk and add fruit for taste)

Dinner: one serving lean meat and one serving green vegetables

P.M. Snack: another Protein shake

I am sooooooo tired. :notagree All I want to do is sleep! Is this normal? I am also still taking my regular multiple Vitamins.< /p>

Jenny- I started my pre-op diet today. WOW you get alot I get 4-5 Protein Shakes a day and every other day get a 4 oz piece of chicken or fish for 10 days. I was so tired today. I don't know if I was just tired or if it's because no calories, ect., I'm sur eit's the no calorie thing.

Good luck!!! I'm being banded July 24.

I start my pre-op diet in the morning. For the first week I get two Protein shakes a day and a reasonable dinner (200 calories and 20 grams of protein). The second week is 4 to 5 Protein Shakes a day. I get banded on 7/30/07. I was hoping I wouldn't get tired. YOu know how sometimes when you're on a diet the second or third day you get your second wind? I'm hoping that happens with me. I've taken off work from Monday to Wednesday this week. My pre-op is Wednesday.

Goodluck!!!

      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! 😞
