I was tired for at least 6 weeks, then off and on for a few more. I take 2 B12 now. At the time I was was also told to drink Poweraid Zero and even regular Gatorade.

I'm two weeks and I am not getting enough Water. I can't get it down without burping a lot. How do you get all your Water in? I miss guzzling it.

I burp a lot too and hiccip after drinking. What's up with that??? Doesn't matter what I drink from, star, no straw, cup, water bottle, I still drink too much air even though I don't feel like I am....

I'm glad I joined this group...the questions I had have already been asked and the answers are there. :) I find this to be a great site for answers to my problems with my gastric bypass. I'm learning a lot about it from others who have been through it and will ask questions (if they have not already been asked) if needed. I'm happy I found this group.

I had my surgery on 6/24 & I am tired all the time. I wasn't getting in enough food & Water because I had a stricture which they dilated last week- I really hope it helps! I understand how all of you feel though because it's so hard to get up for work in the mornings! My Vitamin levels were all normal at my 30 day blood work check.

Well, I took my B12 shot and the tiredness has been relieved somewhat - yea!! I still have a problem with mornings though. I wake up and sometimes have the shakes and feel really weak. Not sure why this is happening. I make sure I get all my prtein in and am keeping hydrated. I wonder if it's because I have gone 6-8 hours with no liquids??

I always wake up tired almost all the time when I know I'm getting enough sleep. I even get sleepy throughout the daytime. I sometimes need a nap during the day. Not sure why but I do. I also have Fibromyalgia which is known to cause chronic fatigue. So I'm not sure what is causing this.

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia a few years ago but since my surgery & weight loss I don't have all the aches & pains I used to have. I know when I get higher Protein levels & all my fluids in I feel better but then I'll have a couple days that I don't drink as much & protein lowers & I get really tired. I still don't have my energy levels that I had before surgery but my surgery was only 7 weeks ago.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
