Are You More Forgetful?

I am 37 years old, in fairly good health despite being overweight. Even at 484 lbs, I barely had high blood pressure and I didn't cross over into diabetes territory. 165 lbs down, and feeling better by the week... in all things, except my memory.

I feel as though I am a bit more forgetful. And while it's hard to pin that to the surgery, necessarily... I just thought I'd ask the group... does anyone else feel as though they are more forgetful or have some other kind of memory issues post-surgery? Mine was ten months ago (today) and I find myself forgetting little things like I had an appointment today, or this store is a LEFT (but I turned right), or what did I have for dinner last night. It's not always, nor really often... but I do catch myself forgetting little things here and there and I've never felt this way before.

I'm eating very well, lots of Protein and veggies. I'm my Vitamin game about 85% of the time (sometimes I forget, or it's not a good time). I don't get it.

Anyone else?

Yes,I lose my train of thought regularly. I attribute it to lack of calories

I also seem to lose my train of thought at times. I'm so happy that my car knows the way home!
