Surgery June 3 and still really tired



Recommended Posts

Hey guys! I had surgery on June 3rd. I'm doing okay, but have noticed I'm just really exhausted by the end of the day. Every morning I plan to get up and exercise and I can't make myself do it. Ugh!! Then, when I get home from work it seems I'm too exhausted to do anything physical. I know I need to be exercising and it's ticking me off that I'm not. I'm on the mushy food now and am eating things like eggs, string cheese, fish, canned chicken and tuna....along with my Protein shakes.

My question to you guys....were you this tired? Is this normal? Or, am I just being lazy and need to kick my butt into gear!!

I appreciate your feedback!!

My fatigue lasted for months. I think it just hits some of us harder. Make sure you are taking all your vits.

It does get better.

I had my surgery on June 5th and I am still dealing with some fatigue. I increased my Protein to 60 grams per day and it has helped.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
