I was banded on 11/28 and have lost almost 30 lbs (including pre surgery). When do I start feeling less tired all the time?

Do you work out?

You shouldn't be so tired. Have you contacted your doctor? Do you take Vitamins? Do you eat your Protein? Do you see a nutritionist?

Please talk with your doctor and nutritionist so they can address this.

Take care.

I was tired for atleast 7 weeks after surgery. I increased my Protein and hydrated which helped. But sleep and rest were equally important. I was Able to feel like exercising ( or at least walking) by third month along working long days. It will get better:)

Some people take as long as 8 weeks to recover from surgery. It greatly depends on your physical condition before it.

If the fatigue continues, see both your doctor and your nutritionist. Get your blood checked to make sure you're not deficient in certain Vitamins and let your nutritionist see what you've been eating (food logs) to make sure you're getting all the healthy food you need.

Some take longer to fully recover than others. Make sure you are getting enough hydration and talk to your doctor or nutritionist. They may want to recheck you blood work for Vitamin deficiencies. I gained energy as the weight came off as well.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
