Vitamin B12. It's a liquid you drop under your tongue for natural energy. It's a life saver.

that and make sure you are getting in your Multivitimins, Protein and liquids. Good luck!

Being tired is usually an indication of lack of Protein. The previous poster said B12, but my doc warned that it does not always give everyone a sense of energy. While you new to make sure you are taking your b12 don't stop taking it if you don't feel an energy boost.

Protein is essential for energy it is the fuel for our body. Make sure you are getting in all your protein as a starting point.

Also remember you just went through major surgery and sometimes it takes our body a little while to recover.

After I workout I have this amazing burst of energy for hours, I know those are the endorfins, I just wish they could put endorfins in a pill form - LOL :)

I went thru several months of being tired, and seems like a lot of people say they did too. I think its part of our bodies way of adjusting to all the changes we have put it thru with the surgery and stuff.. Keep up with all Vitamins and stuff and stay on top of lab-work. Hopefully it will pass soon.

I was 7 weeks yesterday and this is the first week since surgery that I feel like I actually have energy. Make sure to stay hydrated and take your Iron and eat your Protein, as much as you can. And rest all you can if you are feeling tired. Remember, slow and steady wins the race.

      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.
