    Question Is this normal????

    So I'm 5 days post op and I've been feeling very very tired and weak these last 2 days. All I want to do is sleep and I feel really run down...... I know I'm not getting all my clear liquid protein....

    Here is the second part: I found a clear liquid protein by muscle milk called Protein H20 its about 16 oz bottle. I can drink that sucker in about 30 minutes with little discomfort. I read other folks can only drink a 1/2 cup of water etc and I'm wondering if I'm causing any damage to my tummy?

    Any advice is appreciated. Thank you fellow Sleevers.

    Hi Viola. It took me about 10 days before I got any energy back. Remember you are not putting much into your body so you haven't got any energy to spare. I just kept taking naps when I needed to. When you start on more food, you will get more energy. Just hang in there and look after yourself and you will be fine !!

    Yes Viola this is quite normal. It took me longer than that, I am just starting to feel "normal" at 4 weeks post-op. The Dr told me too increase my protein shakes. Good luck

    I'm 10 days out and still feeling that way. I try and get my b12 in first thing in the morning and have protein first thing too... it helps. Your body has been through alot, give it a chance to heal... you just had major surgery!
    Straight forward. Straight facts. Whether you like the truth or not... I'm not made of sugar coating
