So I am almost two weeks post op and it has definitely been an experience. I am getting crazy head hunger and going through a lot of emotions . Anyways one thing that I have been noticing is that I feel tired all the time although I haven't been really active . I mean I have been doing my walking and keeping up with my fluids but after an hour or two of activities ( running errands and etc) I feel worn out and just want to lay down. Despite my weight I have always been an active person . I am one of those people who have a million things going on at once. Am I expecting to much from my body to soon? Has anyone experience fatigue and if so how long till you fully get your energy back up ?

Hey! You're not alone. I'm 3 wks post-op and I'm feeling it too! My goals right now are water, protein, vitamins and a good sleep schedule. I'm hoping it will help. We have to remember we went through a MAJOR surgery.

Thank u for not making me feel alone

I felt that way for the first 3 to 4 weeks. I took a nap pretty much daily the first 3 weeks definitely. I went back to work at 4 weeks post op and it was a bit of a challenge at times. Now I am 2.5 months out and feel normal as far as energy level goes.

I felt exhausted till about two weeks ago and now am three post post. Take care of yourself, walk, rest and drink lots of water! It will pass-you are not alone!

The first two weeks were the worst for me, but then my energy started to return & I have felt great since then. Take it easy and do what you can without pushing too hard. You'll start feeling better soon!
