Energy Levels

[WeeDiamond 0]

HI all,

Am still waiting on a date for my banding and something is troubling me - I am a Solicitor and although my job is desk based I need a lot of energy to fight to the good fight!!

I am worried that after my banding I will have low energy and be lethargic.

Can anyone give me any reassurance or advice on this - I cant let my band effect my work - Have v ery supportive employers but I dont want to let the side down!!

I was banded on 10.10.07 and was also concerned about not being mentally alert enough to return to work so I had taken 2 weeks off work. I found that I was feeling physically and mentally fine within a week and returned to work on about day 8. I am a psychologist and imagine that my clients expect nothing less than 99.9% concentration from me. I am having fairly light meals while at work (yoghurt, salads etc) as the band is still new to me and I don't want to experience stuck foods, PB's etc in my rush to eat in between clients.

energy level is high, but for the extra boost to make sure take Vitamin B12, it helps me greatly ,also, i replace protien drinks and bars to make sure im getting enough in for the day
