I am almost 4 months post sleeve. For the last 3 days I have been exhausted, I just want to close my eyes and take a nap during work (can't really do that) . Has anyone experienced this? My sleep during the night has not changed I get a good 7-8 hours sleep in but have a very hard time getting up in the morning these past few days. I take my vitamins everyday never miss a day. I do work out every day and try to push it just a little bit more each time. I see the doc next week, just checking if anybody else experienced this.

Omg my B12 !! I bet that is what it is.. I used to go and have to have the series of shots cuz it was always low, but that was almost a year ago . I totally forgot about that, I only take the multi vitamin cuz that is what the doctor said is all I needed till I get my blood work done . I get my blood work done on Friday and see the doc next week.. Thank you!!

Do we change as we loose weight? Opinions please ...
cdsjjotn replied to MrsKarenC2008's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My behaviors have definitely changed , I'm not smoking or drinking anymore so I'm not as social as a used to be. But I'm loving the results and loving saving money and loving that I'm so much more active in a healthy way. I have also put me first instead of my friends, not all are ok with it but I had to do it. This is so important to me, the last thing I need is to give up my gym time to sit on a bar stool and figure out all their problems . That may have sounded mean but I have tried to get them to take a walk with me or go to the diner for coffee but it's always an excuse, then they don't understand why I don't want to go out on a Friday or Saturday night . I'm getting the same attitudes at work also because I'm not hanging out eating donuts mid morning or going out to lunch everyday. Well, I guess everyone else may think that I have changed huh lol -

Smokers Beware! - I have an ulcer
cdsjjotn replied to kranky813's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Thank you so much for posting this.. I really hope you are feeling better soon .. I too was a smoker before the surgery, it's been 3 months and now I struggle with it everyday..for some reason it was easier in the beginning.. I have thoughts everyday of just having one.. I know it would lead to more, now you have given me another reason to say to myself no way.. Hope you are getting better and the court stuff gets settled -

Best Protein Bars?
cdsjjotn replied to rydersmama's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I don't really understand it either. I was using quest bar, figuring they were giving me the extra protein that I thought I was lacking by eating chicken instead (just have a hard time eating 3oz) ... My NUT told me no protein bars, they have too many carbs and I should only be eating 20 carbs a day. My protein bars have 23 carbs, I was averaging 40 carbs plus a day -
I only needed a week and really was working from home during that week. When I went back I was tired but fine, no problems. Good luck to you

Food & Social Life after surgery
cdsjjotn replied to Rvamom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I sip on half a glass of wine, take a few bites and play with my food , nobody really pays attention.. I used to drink a bottle of wine, eat an app dinner and desert..I don't miss it at all!! Skinny and healthy is so worth it ! Good luck with your decision -
I've been reading a lot of posts on hair loss. It has me very nervous . I am 5 weeks post op and haven't experienced any hair loss. I am getting my grays colored tomorrow. My question is, has everyone experienced hair loss? And if yes, when did it start and when did you start to see re growth ?
