Sleeve with switch

[yoyena 3]

Does anyone feel a tremendous loss of energy.

[CowgirlJane 14,259]

Yes, but it got better! I would say the first 12 weeks post sleeve i didn't feel great. Alot of this is caused by mild dehydration in those early weeks.

By 3-4 months out I felt GREAT!

@@yoyena dehydration will also make you tired and if you are on BP meds you may need to check it as well. after a loss of about 25 to 30 lbs my np was dropping to 100/60. I break it in half now. hope to be off the medicine soon.

[yoyena 3]

Yes im on blood pressure medicine. Go back to the doctor 8/14

For me it was about 3 or 4 weeks until my energy started coming back. I took 4 weeks off work and was so happy with that decision simply because my energy level suffered. But trust me, when it comes back, you get a nice bonus. I have so much more energy with every pound I lose.

It definitely took me a few weeks, but now I have more energy then I have had in a long time. I can't wait to see what I will be like by the end of this process, I'll probably turn into the energizer bunny!!! Haha
