I’m pre-op so my opinion might not be worth much. Are you getting all of your liquids? I have noticed on days when I do not drink enough Water my mind races at night, I can’t get to sleep and when I finally do it is very late and I wake up in the middle of the night feeling wide awake but unrested.

I am 11 weeks out from VSG and I am having the same problem. I wake up between 2:30 and 4:00 and sometimes never fall back asleep before my alarm goes off at 5:45. It's awful! I wish I could give you some tips but I'm still trying to figure it out myself! Good luck!

I take unisom or zquil because I haveeeeeee to sleep! I was staying up all night sleep like 4-5 hors during the day and then up til the next morning-rinse and repeat. I think being off of wirk contributed. Now that i went back i come home tired so its easier to sleep at night.

      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.
