I am in the 2nd week of liquids and my energy has gone from wide open to about to fall asleep at my desk, any one else have this happen and how long after the surgery will I get my energy back???

Am I correct in assuming that you are on your pre-op liquid diet?

If so, I can empathize. I'm in week two of a 6-week hybrid liquid pre-op diet. Mid afternoon hits me really hard. Fatigue and brain fog big time. I'm not sure how long it lasts after surgery, but it is challenging for sure. Hang in there!

Thank you, Yes I’m in the preppy liquid diet

If you’re ore op then I can be difficult

if you're post ,,,Make sure you’re having wholesome soups , homemade are easy enough and quick

lots of veg blended with stick and also keep up your protein

I am two weeks post op today and I’m not that tired although I have had a little tiredness

Ive tried to make sure I’ve kept my protein up

add ricotta cheese to condensed chicken soup with a little milk and blend

it’s creamy and tasty too

also blend vegetable soup to make more liquidy but def keep your protein up and water ... I’m ot great at the water bit I don’t like but I’m trying

hope you you feel less tired soon
