2 months out and I'm still exhausted

Tomorrow (Dec. 2nd) I will be two months post op and I'm still dealing with exhaustion. I get about 9 hours of sleep every night but still struggle to stay alert during the day. I just feel like I have no energy. Any advice, words of encouragement, stories that will give me hope? Also dealing with some post op depression which I'm sure isnt helping

  • Yeah, I forget about the whole major surgery part because it feels like a distant memory in my mind already. It's weird to think that my body could still be feeling the effects from the surgery itself

  • Oct517 remember we are all here for you,-you are part of our worldwide Bariatric Pal family. Burdenscare a lot lighter when you have someone to share them with!????

  • I'm 4 months out. I get on average 700-800 calories a day. Some days more most days closer to 700. I'm just starting to get energy back. I'm still in bed by 9:30-10. Which presurgery never happened.

Years ago when I did Pritikin (anyone remember that?) you couldn't have coffee or tea so I developed a taste for boiling water (like you would for coffee or tea) and putting a slice of lemon in it. Pretty good way to get your water in!

This might have to be my next option!

Sometimes energy ebbs and flows.

I'm 13 months out and exhausted this week.

One solution for me this go round, coffee. Other times it maybe sleep, vitamins or hydration.

Yes, I've been living on coffee these last two weeks. Its hard to survive the end of the semester without it. I think I've been doing well with vitamins and sleep. The hydration part is always a challenge but I've been doing better. I've hit a major weight loss period where the pounds are just falling off so I'm thinking maybe this why I am so tired.
