Are you taking any Vitamin supplements? Try taking a B vitamin and see if that helps. Everyone recovers from surgery differently.

It will get better. I had gastric bypass on July 22, and for the first two weeks I had no energy for nothing. I'm three weeks out and it's a lot better. Right after surgery, I took naps every day. Now, If I feel really tired, I take a short nap. Just hang in there!

It took three weeks for energy to start to return. I have never been so tired in my life.

I'm 10 days out and too tired to do much. I walk from the couch to the kitchen and have to pause to catch my breath or gain energy to go back. I do find some days are better than others. I also started driving my teen to school this week and the walk to the car is fine. Yet from the car, up a flight of stairs to my apartment is so draining that I am literally panting by the time I get to the door. Pain and soreness is still there but are getting much more tolerable. Overall I think it gets better each day. I start on a Multivitamin next Tuesday when I start my 3rd week so I hope to see some improvements. Hope you feel better Niki.

I thought I was the only person that felt weak. I live up 3 flights of stairs and I am literally out of breath once I make it to my door. And I'm not in the mood to do anything. AND I'M HUNGRY!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
