I'm 2 weeks out today and I'm still exhausted. I do a good amount of stuff during the day, but end up having to take a nap mid day. But I'm just dragging my self when will the energy come in?

I was exhausted until about 3 weeks out. When I started on soft foods, and started walking more then my energy returned. Now 4 months later I should be able to bottle and sell my energy I have so much.

Hang in there. It will get better.

I really hope so.... Thanks for the encouragement!

It took me about 4-5 weeks to not get exhausted doing the simplest things but now at almost 4 months out I feel fantastic!!! I have lost right at 70 pounds and am loving life! Hang in there it will get better.

I'm on week 5 and just starting to get my energy back. No naps this week and feeling great. I had some internal bleeding 3 days post op that set me back a week though.

Good luck!

I will be 2 weeks post op this coming Monday and I'm right with you! Exhausted and napping during the day (which is frustrating as I'm usually a go go go kind of girl). I'm glad to hear this will soon end (crossing fingers). Best of luck to you!

Good evening you may need to eat more so your body will have something to feed off of. I will be 2 weeks on Tuesday and I felt like that at first and I realized that I had to eat a snack I between meals . Phase 2 foods. Hope this helps you also you have to be consitant with it .

It will take a few weeks. Be kind to yourself and do what you can and rest. It does get better. Like others have said, I felt much stronger when I could eat more and excercise. I am almost 4 weeks out and I feel so much better. I've been cleaning and organizing everything since I still can't tackle the big things. But it is nice to start cleaning out the closet and seeing a difference in myself.......down 38 lbs total! 18 since surgery.

Congrats on you weight lost!!!!

Me too, was just exhausted until week three, when it started to improve. I'm still not 100% but at least I can function. Every week is better.

Congrats on you weight lost!!!!

Thanks cbware01!

It will get better. But try more protein. Protein helps boost energy. I was going thru the same thing. I m 3wks post op. Good luck
