RainbowBrite57 153 Posted August 5, 2020 Is/was anyone else just worn down & exhausted before your surgery? It’s not from expending too much energy because I don’t have much to spend. It just feels like my body is done with the strain of carrying this extra weight around for two decades. (I’m 40) I’ve had my pre-op tests so if it’s actually something medical, it would hopefully show up. It really doesn’t feel like symptoms from a disease or anything. It just feels like my body has had enough. 2 GreenTealael and DwGirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

catwoman7 11,220 Posted August 6, 2020 I felt that way before surgery. No more. I feel healthier and more energetic at 60 than I ever did at 40! 1 RainbowBrite57 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WishMeSmaller 1,274 Posted August 6, 2020 During my two week pre-op diet I literally had no energy. I worked and that was about all I did during those two weeks. I was afraid I would feel like that post-op too, but my energy levels really did shoot up after week one of post-op. It was actually shocking how much energy I suddenly had. Loving it! 1 1 sizemedown and RainbowBrite57 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Alley Gator 263 Posted August 6, 2020 You are normal do not panic! I would have to say all of us or most of us felt the same way, Just done with it. I beat the hell out of my body thru poor choices and a hell raising lifestyle. Now a year after surgery I feel 30 again and healthy and happy. You mind is playing games also which is very common You got this 1 2 sizemedown, tarotcardreader and RainbowBrite57 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigman12345 58 Posted August 11, 2020 Definitely a stressful time, all the build up to it and waiting is exhausting 1 RainbowBrite57 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RainbowBrite57 153 Posted August 25, 2020 Thanks for all the feedback, y’all! Now that I’ve been given a surgery date (Sept. 9th) I have a bit more energy. I think my adrenaline is kicking in from being in “preparing for surgery” mode. 😁 1 WishMeSmaller reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
