Afternoon Exhaustion

[Nhope 146]

In the last month, I've found myself getting really exhausted midday. I have an appointment with my nutritionist in a couple of weeks, but I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this--I'm about 7 months out now.

I take all my Vitamins and am getting enough Protein, but still worry about malabsorption.(sp?)

Thanks,

N

I am glad you are getting checked - it could be anemia or another deficiency or something else. I hope you find out and get it resolved. Good luck.

yep - good to get it checked out and I would ask your NUT about getting bloodwork done too. I've had to tweak the Vitamins I'm taking periodically. I added in an Iron supplement and Vitamin A and both have helped my energy levels a lot. Also when I was around 6 months out my NUT had to force me to add in more carbs. I was so terrified of carbs and my meals were literally just a Protein for the full amount. Once I adjusted that so I had a better balance of protein/healthy carbs/fat I was much better.
