Recommended Posts

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.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
