I had gastric bypass 4 days ago still on clear liquids until the 22nd I'm still in some pain this is so different from the sleeve I had 2 years ago. I'm not hungry cuz I'm tired of broth I'm getting my protein in as much as I can. If I knew 2years later after my gastric sleeve that I would have to have this bypass surgery I don't know If I would have done it. I lost a lot of weight with the sleeve surgery this bypass surgery I feel like it's hard to get energy I didn't feel like this with the sleeve

Give yourself some time You just had major major surgery. It's easy for us to think that whatever we are feeling today is how we will feel forever.

Maybe make a deal with yourself just to take it one day at a time, and not think about 'is this how I will feel forever?' until you're on solid foods again - in 4-6 weeks' time?

Hope you’re feeling better soon!

Here is something that has helped me a lot...

I watched an interview with a Navy SEAL trainer, where he talked about people dropping out of SEAL training. Roughly 75% of the people who start the training drop out. He said the people who fail have a "long horizon." They are miserable in this training -- wet, exhausted, hungry, angry -- and the people who fail say to themselves, "I can't handle two more weeks of this." They think that every moment will be like the one they are currently experiencing and they quit. The ones who succeed and graduate have a very short horizon. "I can make it until dinner break." "I can make it until they let me take a 20 minute nap." "I can make it through sundown." And when they reach that horizon, they set a new short horizon.

Just tell yourself, "I can make it until I leave work for the day." Then, "I can make it until dinner time." Then, "I can make it until bedtime." Keep giving yourself short horizons until you've gotten through this stage. You can do it!
