Unhappysleever 39 Posted September 7, 2014 I am a week short of 8 mths and some days i still feel tired abit kind of blah. Today is one of those days just feel tired, is anyone else this far out feel the same?? I eat between 1000-1200 calories, 40-60grms of Protein and between 50-64ozs of Water. I think its more cause its the weekend and i just dont follow my usual food and drink routine. During the week i am good on the weekend so so... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KhadijahRose 66 Posted September 7, 2014 I was that way for about 9 months! I am 18 months post op and hadn't a clue as to why I could hardly stay awake. I worked out, I ate generally healthy and I drank about a cup of very strong coffee every morning yet by 3pm I always felt sleepy and sometimes fell asleep. Mind you, I am 29 years old and in decent shape. Come to find out I was severely anemic. Never thought of Iorn pills because I felt okay. But after talking to my doc about dizziness and tiredness my numbers came back very bad. Now after about 2 weeks of taking Iron suppliments I feel much better. Still not where I want to be but I don't sleep during the day anymore and I don't feel dizziness all of a sudden or upon standing. So it could be that...but if you've had your blood work done you should definitely talk to your doc about it because it actually is a significant sign of something being up this far out.

BitterSweet* 835 Posted September 7, 2014 I agree with @KadijahRose, it wouldn't hurt to get your labs drawn. Anemia really can make you feel drained. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
