i am 6 days post op and feeling very week, i have no energy and feel so full all the time, maybe because i am constipated (SORRY) but maybe u guys have some advice!

Hi there-I know exactly what you are going through. I started feeling that same way around my 6th day out. I called the doctor and they approved me to have mashed potatoes to put something heavier on my stomach to provide me with more energy. Are you able to drink any protein shake at all? Try milk of magnesia, thats been working pretty good for me. Also, try some prunes if you don't mind the taste of them.

It does get better-trust me. I was banded on 09/24 and I'm feeling great now!

Just communicate with your doctor and see what they advise you to do.

Good luck!

I was banded on October 2nd. I too had times feeling weak but found that my body was just craving protein and it was time to eat. My appetite has not returned near what it was but I start to feel weak and cold when I need protein. Just what I learned.
