Whew...i really didn't think I'd have the energy to come into work today. I'm exhausted. I'm mostly getting all protein, vitamins and liquids in....but my god I'm exhausted. I've been pretty busy, but before surgery I was never this exhausted.....maybe once if I ran myself absolutely to the end. I knew people mentioned that it takes a few months to get energy back, but wow...I am beat. I suppose I have been doing more lately as I get back into the swing of everything and working extra hours, etc. Anyone else go through this?? I went to bed at 9pm last night and didn't wake up until 7:45 this morning (yes I ended up being late for work, lol. Fortunately my boss is really thoughtful and told me to take it easy today anyway and didn't mind me being about 30 minutes late.)

You should get bloodwork done. B12and iron are my first suspects. I know you mention you take vitamins, but while most people here take B12, I don't see people taking iron as often.

Also, I don't know where you live, but it could be a seasonal thing and have nothing to do with the sleeve. I am always mildly homicidal and permanently exhausted come February, until about April.

I take 2500 mcg of B12 every few days. I do know that if I do not get 8 hours then I am very tired. One day I had to pick my husband up at the airport at 11:00. We got back at 12 and I had to get up at 5;30. I was so out of it that I didn't remember turning the alarm off. I also put my phone in such a strange place that I couldn't find it when I did wake up. I had to call in sick.

It may be lack of calories or my body working hard to rid myself of the fat. Who knows. I don't think it's related to the actual surgery or that anything is wrong. Otherwise, I am more alert than I was pre-surgery with that horrid apnea.

Have you had your thyroid checked? Maybe ask your doc for a TSH, T4, T5 blood test.

I am almost 10 weeks and I also feel tired. I take iron and sublingual b12 daily so it isn't that. I guess my body is going through a lot right now and needs the extra rest. That's all I can figure.
