Can anyone tell me when this over whelming yucky feeling will let up?

I'm now 21/2 weeks post-op. Eating and drinking what I can. It's not always easy. I start my b12 pills in a couple of days. Do you think I'll start feeling better then. I'm 46 have lost about 25 lbs since surgery. But I just can't get going. I went out for a short shopping trip the other day, then stayed in bed yesterday. I'm so lethargic. Yes I am having trouble getting in enough protein, but my doc said just try to get in 500 calories for now. Water is hard too but I sip all day long. Just someone tell me this fairly normal. I read about all you guys going back to work in 2-3 weeks and I know I just couldn't, and really wonder if I'll be ready at 5-6 weeks. Words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated, because if I feel this was for too long I'll be on this site telling everybody to forget it.
