4-6 weeks mine really picked up

I was sleeved a week after you and I'm having the fatique issue too. I started with extra iron 2 days ago but so far nothing. I do some housework and get so tired I take a break, over and over. I'm disappointed in how little I get done. Monday I go back to work, hopefully that will help perk me up.

took about 6 weeks for me. Sometimes I still wake up tired though. Try the sublingual b12. Its helps.

I am pre-surgery. I thought I would have more energy after surgery and weight loss. :(

Take vitamins and get active.

I am 3 weeks post op and I have been struggling with fatigue too. I also caught an upper respiratory infection in the hospital and that impaired my rest and sleep for the first week post-op. I talked with my Dr's office and they suggested boosting my protein from 60 grams to 90 grams. That seems to have helped a little, but like you I can't even think about going back to work in this condition. I hope the fatigue eases in the next few days.... good luck and let us know if you find any of the suggestions helpful.
