Your body is going thru some big changes. I say it needs rest... Just my opinion .., ask your doc at your next mtg.....

but if you can and are able why not just Relax and heal 7 weeks after surgery?

Good luck on changing your life with WLS .

Hello, My name is Christine I was sleeved on May 9th, 2016 so I am more post surgery than some and must say I get tired too! I sleep 9 hours a day during the workweek and often take a nap on my days off. I feel more energetic if I remember to eat more often. This is hard but it also helped with a 3 week weight loss stall. I am down 34 pounds started at 206 and am down to 172 ish. This is the lowest I have been in a while. As long as I remember to drink a Protein shake, take Vitamins, and stay busy and EAT and Drink I lose and feel pretty good but it doesn't take long if I forget any of these things to not feel good.

      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.
