Fatigue?

[girldep 0]

Today is pre-op day 6 for me and I feel great! However, I'm pretty fatigued. I really feel as though I can lay down and nap at any time. Other than that I feel very good. Has anyone else expierenced this?

I felt "weak" for a while from so little nutrients. Now I think I have adjusted ok.

Well, Im definately getting all my protien in. But I'm not sure if I'm eating enough. It is the strangest thing, because I'm not sure if I am full. I hope that makes sense. Maybe I'm not getting enough nutrients, even tho i'm taking my Vitamin and B12 religiously. Maybe I'm just tired from surgery. who knows. :laugh0:

I think that, for me anyway, your body just has to adjust to a new routine. I ate a lot more (even while taking my Vitamins, etc.) than I did post op. You are still on liquids too. I can guarantee you aren't getting the same nutrients on broth and sugar free Jello that you do on roast and potatoes LOL I could be totally off base with this, but that is how it was with me. Now I'm cool on what I do get.

This is all very "normal".. our bodies are adjusting to everything!

I was sooooo tired about a month out.... I felt as if I could barely hold the hair drying up to do myhair! I was warned about this from my Doctors and NUT. so I didn't worry- and it does pass! And you will see such a difference in finding so much nore energy as the weight comes off!!
