I had the procedure done 10th May 2012 & have lost 35kg, for the 1st few months I had endless amounts of energy however over the past month I've got literally no energy & feel as lazy as I was presleeve. Could it be my diet? I've been eating what I want (mostly carbs) & have had probably more nights on the booze than I should however I'm still losing weight, just have no energy that's the worst thing I loathe.....

Alcohol is a depressant and could be contributing to your lack of energy. Maybe increase protein intake and stop drinking alcohol to see how your energy level.

yea increase your protein. alcohol can dehydrate you also. Lack of sufficient protein and or water can cause fatigue.

I agree with both of the previous posts...Hope you start feeling better soon...

Don't get me wrong I don't have a drinking problem it's just that I've been to a few bbqs, weddings, work functions etc. as of this week I've already started making the right changes. Does anyone know what the daily limit of carbs is?

I keep my protein at 75-90 grams/day, and my carbs below 30 grams/day.

Are you keeping on your b 12 Vitamins??

I take a Multi Vitamin & Fish Oil tablet everyday.

My nut recommended multivitamin, b12, and citrical daily

My mum is on under 10 carbs a day on diabetic diet, and my sister is on 300-500 a day depending on her training schedule... Everyone diff. But pre-sleeve I'm averaging 300, but I'd like to cut that down (most of it is fruit and grains though- except on bad takeout days)

What's a nut and a critical?

Nut is nutritionist and citrical (I read it as critical first too lol) is for calcium?

Breakfast: 8oz chocolate Muscle Milk Lite

AM snack: 1/2 an Atkins bar (Mudslide usually)

Lunch: 1/3 cup tuna salad and 1/4 cup fat free cottage cheese

Afternoon snack: something with at least 15 grams Protein, and no more than 5 grams carbs

Dinner: 2 oz lean meat and 1/4 cup non-starchy veggie

PM snack: Gelatein 20 (high-protein jello)

I have other options that I alternate, but that's pretty typical for a day.

I do my best to stay around 30 carbs a day also. Sometimes its a bit higher but not tht often. I eat around 300+ to 650 calories a day. Average inbetween that. I was sleeved on July 16th.
