weird energy buzz



Recommended Posts

So for the first four days or so-all I could do is sleep. I slept all day and all night (except for the vomiting). Not so great. But yesterday-I started with this weird energy. No nap. Then I could not go to sleep. I kept having this weird half awake dream of a Mexican made for tv movie about lap bands (you know-those summer miniseries)-which of course, I was in. My body is still sore and achey. But I am really clear. And Iwondered if all that food that I used to eat sucked all of the energy out of my brain and that is why I was tired all of time (I don't think there is any physiological basis for this-but I had a lot of time to think at night.)

Finally, I have become so deconditioned as I got fatter in the last year-exercise as really uncomfortable. For those of you like me-how did you gradually get back into it-telly and tricia have me completely intimidated!!!

LOL don't be intimidated by their workouts. they are just crazy. LOL

I think there is a period of time when the body switches over to burning its fat for energy, and the better food we eat is burned more efficiently. its pretty normal. i went through that a few times when I dieted. mix it with a good walk and you have the recipe to lose weight.

I got banded 3 weeks ago and I'm experiencing that same weird energy. I was pretty exhausted before the surgery, but when I got home, I was suddenly totally awake and feeling better than I've felt in 20 years. Then I started taking my usual medicine and the energy went away though I still sleep less than before. In fact, I used to take a nap every day and now I don't and feel just fine. The problem is that I'm bored because I have so much more awake time now. I'm going to have to find something to do.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
