Hi everyone,

4 days post op and want to know if others are feeling as tired as I do. I'm also getting frequent headaches and craving coffee. Would love to get some tips on how to energize myself.

headaches usually go with the caffeine withdrawals, as for being tired it took me a week or two to get back in the swing of things, but it gets better each day.

Hang in there!

I was sleeved on the 9th also. I did have headaches late in the day on day 2 and 3 but I contributed it to the neck pain that I've been having, perhaps from not being able to sleep like I usually do. As for coffee, I've had it everyday since I returned home. It's on my list of Clear liquids that I can have, as long as I don't use a dairy Creamer. I haven't been able to drink a whole cup, but I will sip about half a cup

The only problem other than that I am having is some tightening in my chest whenever I eat or drink. This may be due the hernia that Dr. Moore repaired, hopefully though, this too passes. I'm really ready to get back to normal life and activities. I've been walking 2-3 times a day for 15 minutes on my treadmill.

I like coffee, but haven't had any headaches. I would say it may be caffeine withdrawal. Maybe ask you NUT when you can start your coffee fix again? I would say you would probably start during your Nourishing liquids Phase (Phase 2).

I had surgery the 9th too. I'm feeling so hungry also drained and tired. Today I ate a little Greek yogurt and it helped a little meaning maybe 4 spoonfuls in 6 hours. Im not sure it was a good idea but it did help me a little with the hunger. I'm not a caffeine drinking so no headaches.

I'm a Nov 9th sleevie... I feel pretty good. I accidentally took a single gulp of Protein shake this morning. Yikes. I've never been a big eater - just a bad eater. That said, I have to remind myself to drink. I'm on full liquids for another week. I have a cup of Soup sitting right next to me as I type this. It's 1/2 cup and I think I've had 10 sips the past hour. :( Hoping pureed foods give me a bit more energy.

How are the Nov 9TH PEOPLE doing? I feel like i can eat and drink too much.

I was sleeved on the 9th and I think I'm just barely getting enough Protein and liquids. Its hard to constantly drink all day. As far as drinking too much, I seem to be able to drink my Breakfast shake (8 oz) within about 20 mins but my wife (also sleeved on the 9th) takes about an hour. After that meal though its tough to get in more and more liquids.

      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! 😞
