Anyone else? No motivation to even move!!!

I had RNY on 10/8, so I am only 4 days out… I am drained easily and feel most limited by the mild pain I'm feeling… it is not bad at all, considering, it is just hard to bend over and it starts to wear on me quickly. I have not gone back to work yet and I've been lucky that I do not have too many physical demands right now. I think I would notice it more if that were the case… as it is I usually nap once during the day and do the bare minimum the rest of the day. Each day is better, though, so I think we will see the light, soon!

That's definitely how I felt at six days out. From what I hear that's very common. Your body is still healing from a major trauma. Also, my surgeon says its normal to feel fatigued until about six weeks out because you're losing weight so rapidly. I'm three weeks out myself. I feel much better than I did two weeks ago, but still not myself and not quite ready to go back to work.

I'm 3.5 weeks and I'd say I have felt more fatigued, drained, exhausted and pooped in the last week and a half than the first 2 weeks.

I have been told that it is totally normal and will go away soon (Anywhere between in the next week up to 8 weeks)

Ohhh wow I hope it doesn't take that long!! I can't go back to work like this nor drive sometimes I feel zoned out all day

I'm with Heather5565. I'm 3.5 weeks tomorrow and today I could barely stand in the elevator long enough to go from the first floor to the third! I'm glad I'm not alone!
