The pounds are coming off quickly and I'm excited about it but I am also feeling low energy. I tire easily. I go out for walks and some days I'm okay but most others I am tired after walking just a few blocks. It's a bit frustrating. I am trying my best to keep up With all my Vitamins. My doctor said to walk and even start exercising a bit. With this energy level, I can't even think about exercising yet. Anyone else have low energy?

Same here. When I've overdone it I've actually felt faint a couple of times.

I'm 5w3d and some days I feel fine and other days I feel blah! I'm finally able to get in all my Vitamins but Protein not so much...most times I'm not hungry or get full too fast.

Like mami said... Energy does come back especially the more Protein you can add and the more exercise you do

I'm going to be one month on the 6th and I am tired and have no energy. I think it's normal and it gets better at least you have walked a block or more...I haven't been able to leave the recliner chair until two days ago!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
