Weakness

Hello I am wondering who can give me some advice on what worked for you all.

I am feeling weak since I haven’t been eating much and my mouth is super dry.

What do you all eat or supplements do you take?

start with water I prefer bottled water not tap water each to their own stay hydrated fruit bananas are good gives you a boost of energy swimmers have one before swimming vegetables a peeled carrot is good then run under tap pasta with salad and salad dressing sauce tuna is good especially the tuna steaks personally I would not rely on supplements over food only time I would take supplements would be if I was lacking in something I have heard you crave a certain food when your body requires it I went through a stage where I had a taste for onions 🤔you could smell onions perspiring through your pores when going for a shower

Hi, after my emergency op a few weeks ago I lost a stone in weight through not being able to eat and was given ENSURE energy drinks. By my Dr, I find them very good. 👍

Hi,I'm sorry you're dealing with that. Thanks for posting, though, because I'm in a similar state and am also looking for ideas. I'm not eating much and feel weak because of it. I hate it because now I'm depressed. Everything is just made worse when depression strikes.

Water works wonders for my energy (unless of course I'm too weak to fill up my water bottle, as has been the case today🙄). I have granola bars, fruits, and nuts at hand. Readymade dinners are nice to have every so often (although I know it's not beneficial to my health to have these often because of the amount of salt). I have Cheerios on hand as well, and eat them with or without milk.

I used to take a multivitamin; I'm not sure why I stopped since it worked really well. I need to start taking them again.

I hope this gives you some ideas.

Not what you're looking for?
