Energy level has not improved to the level it once was!

[sleever54 8]

I had surgery 10/15 and I still find myself lacking in energy. I take my Vitamins, eat Protein but could do better and drink liquid but could be better, however, before surgery I always had a TON of energy.

I just don't have that kind of energy I use to have and I don't know what to do. I even find it hard to get motivated to work out when before surgery I was always committed and go at least 5 days a week.

Is anyone else feeling this way?

Me too although is seems to be getting a bit better for me. My labs have all looked fine since surgery so I'm not sure why my energy level has not been what it was pre-surgery. My surgery was Sep 2015.

I give this advice a lot everyone. But have you tried taking magnesium. Not magnesium citrate not magnesium oxide. But magnesium glutamate or magnesium orate. Any Vitamin shop will sell it. I regularly take about two hundred percent of daily value of that. Stress.sucks out magnesium. Surgery is stressful on your body. So is life. My greatest sin is when I feel better I stopped taking magnesium and then I cycle all over again. Magnesium helps with anxiety depression energy and a host of other things. If you take a little too much until your body gets used to it it's just going to come out in your poop. I also take Vitamin D B12 and so late. That cluster of Vitamins seem to all be really good friends. And help each other work. Plus they're very cheap. I have also added on and TMG. The TMC seems to help with depression as well. The Magnesium is the thing that helps me the most. It's not so much that have more energy with it it's just that I feel worse without it.
