On any given day I could sleep in late until like 10 and then nap all afternoon too. If I don't nap all afternoon then I can't stop yawning all day when I work. Is this just because of my obesity? Or is there something else possibly wrong? I want my energy back!!!! I don't want to sleep through life!

Have you had a sleep study done? I was falling asleep driving, at my desk, during meetings (even ones where I was actively involved). I found out I had pretty severe apnea but I wasn't even aware of it. I sleep alone (well, with my dog but he doesn't complain about snoring) so nobody was around to hear me stop breathing.

The CPAP has literally saved my life and I'm SO much better now.

Best wishes!

It doesn't say when you had your surgery...but if it's been somewhat recent, this is common, your body is still healing...give it time, you'll be ok!

Good luck

I feel you, I just had my surgery 4 weeks ago, and I feel so tired by the end of my work day I could go home and sleep till morning. I work from 7:30 - 4:30, and when i get home at 5, I feel like crap, I am exhausted, I have no energy to eat, cook for my family, nothing. I am so ready for some energy to start kicking in. I think if you just got your surgery done it could be due to the healing and the lack of protein/carbs too. Im not sure in your case, but I think that is what is going on with me. I yawn all day too, I am always just tired, but I sit at a desk pretty much all day so that doesn't help either? Good Luck!!!

Early on in my recovery, I would hit a wall around lunch time and would be exhausted the rest of the day. I still feel tired now, 4 months out, but I think it is mainly because of the drug I take to slow my heart rate. It knocks me out like a sleeping pill at night, and keeps me exhausted all day. Chronic fatigue is no fun. I hope this is just early in your recovery for you. If so, it will lessen.
