Has anyone else had trouble once going back to work? I get through the day and I just want to go to bed. I am so exhausted!

YES YES YES...I will be 3 weeks post op Monday and just came back this week, and I am just so tired by 3 pm. Fortunately this is our business, and Hubby kicks me out at about three and I go take a nap, But my problem is exercise...STILL HAVE NOT really started. I need to but my legs are like Jello when I do. I forget my Vitamin sometimes, I am thinkin that could be it.

I am fortunate to feel great. I went to work one and a half weeks after surgery (had surgery wed, returned to work on a mon). I think the fact that I can consume 800-1000 calories helps my energy levels and I eat throughout the day so energy doesn't dip. I am going to bed earlier (10pm) but I used to stay up until 1-2am so that's my most notable difference.

What is your calorie intake?

I'm not getting very many calories maybe 500-700 if that. I feel great other than being tired. I'm satisfied after my meals which mostly consist of yogurt and turkey.

      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.
