5 weeks out and I am falling down tired! My recovery has been really easy and I do get tired more easily than normal but the past few days have been terrible. Slept 14 hours last night and I'm hoping to get that in tonight too... (exciting New Years plan right??) Is this all part of the recovery process or should I make an apointment?

peoples strength, tiredness varies - but it is common to be tired, how tired from one person to another?? common denominator is we're all different :lol:

14 hrs sleep new years eve???

thats ok, in the new year you'll gradually find more heath, happiness and plenty more energy!!!

good night :)

I am still pre op but all of my classes and the surgeon said to expect to be fatigued and tired the first three months due to your caloric intake going from around 3000 calaries a day to around 500-600 a day. They also said that around three months the honeymoon phase begins cause your are feeling real good and looking good too. Look forward to that!

I am 2 months out. I just started to get my stamina back. I feel much more energy on the days I take my vitimans. Yes I have been guilty of not taking them as I should have. I have since learned they do have their purpose.... So I take them as I should. Word to the wise....B12 really do help with energy levels!

      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.
