I'm 7 weeks out and have also been incredibly tired.  I keep looking for the light at the end of the tunnel.  It's good to know I"m not alone.

Hey my co-RNYers for April..  Im having so so much trouble trying to get in my protein and liquids for the day!!!!  Not liking cottage cheese, shakes are making me sick, except for the the no sugar added Carnation instant breakfast....dont even know if that shake is ok to be drinking, but it tastes better than others for me.  tired of yogurt all the time.  One thing Ive been eating is Wendys chili almost every day, that I tolerate well, chicken.. not so much, tuna... not so much either, Whats a girl to do????  Help!  I will be eight weeks post op tomorrow.

You give me hope. Your surgery was 11 days after mine. I'm hoping my energy drain will be over within a couple days. I'm upping the protein. :-)

My energy level was awful until mid last week.  I am getting between 80-100 g of protein, I think it's' just the after effects of anesthesia and surgery...

I'm starting to come out of the energy drain now...but it was ridiculous how tired for the last 6-7 weeks.  I think we just have to be patient and listen to our bodies and give them rest when they really need it to repair from surgery.

I just went out of town for a week, so I had to make an eating out choice for every meal.  

Breakfast went for eggs and cheese and sometimes oatmeal.
Lunch and Dinner - salads with grilled chicken, turkey burger patty, turkey meat (out of a turkey sandwich), fajitas.

I also carry around with me a tuna salad pack and a protein bar so that I'm never without something to eat in case of emergency.
