Is anyone else as tired as I am?



Recommended Posts

I'm 6 wks PO and feel like I can only make it half day before I'm totally exhausted. It makes it really hard to go to the gym after work when all I want to do is crawl in bed and sleep. I'm taking my Vitamins, getting my Protein, and getting my Water.< /p>

We're twins--I was 6 weeks yesterday. I am so tired. Definitely need a daily nap. Haven't started exercising but of course, dr said that's the answer.

I had my 6 week checkup yesterday and dr gave me a B12 shot. I just had one on Nov 29 but she said it would make me feel better. I don't yet. Who knows? I'm going to start walking today. I hope I can do a good amount--like 15 minutes at least.

I've felt so good, though. I was at the gym 4 days PO and walking 3 miles by day 7. My energy changes so drastically from day to day. I'm eating pretty much the same, just can't seem to acct for the highs and lows. I'm hoping its normal.

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
