Energy Levels

I've read a lot about energy level decreasing after surgery. True I had a muffin and some cantaloupe today. But I attribute 90% of my tiredness to me being overweight (and lazy).

Question is:

When I lose the weight, after I've had a VSG (I'm still pre-op), will I STILL be this tired? :sad0:

I just assumed that when I lost some of this weight I would CERTAINLY have more energy. Im just starting to wonder if there are other underlying issues here.

THANKS!

I was still pretty tired after surgery. I attributed it to getting in so few calories. Around 6 weeks out I remember feeling so much closer to normal where my energy was concerned, and now 5 months out and 85 pounds down, I feel more energy than I can remember having ever.
