Sleeved on 9th November

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 the 9th. I'm feeling pretty good so happy I'm getting to eat a little. I'm down 16 lbs so far. I'm not really doing the puréed food. So if I have chicken I cut it very tiny and chew it real good. Everything seems to be going down.

    Sleeved 11/9. Feeling so much better. I felt like I turned a corner this Tuesday. Pretty jealous of eating chicken. I get to puree food next week and then REAL food the next. Excited to be on this journey and glad there are others with me!

    I'm on full liquids for 17 days then 10 days puréed. I was told to start my vitamins after 1 month maybe that's why I feel so tired and weak.
