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>

at 6 weeks out I still didnt have energy to do laundry much less go to the gym, but once I started forcing myself, the energy came... its like I had to exert myself to get energy... it does get better... by month 3 you will be lighter on your feel and zipping around like a bee

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.

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
