How pooped were you?

[Yoyo-nomore]

Hey all:

I am just uncharacteristically pooped at the moment (which is odd for me). 3-4 weeks past the op, I can work a 12 hour day or pack 10 things into one day, but as soon as I stop I crave sleep. So I'm finding myself going to bed as early as possible, pretty much the moment I've got the kids down. Is this a common bypass experience or is it more likey that I'm just an unfit, overweight, knackered overworked mother of two pre-school kids?

HMmmmmmmm...... think I might have answered my own question!

Hugs to all.. interested to know if others have lagged a bit? If you did, does it go away once you've fully recovered or is this a new reality going forward?

Sounds like you are doing really well though after 3 - 4 weeks after surgery...Well done!

Oh thank god I'm not the only one.......... I'm on one week post op (I was banded) and can potter around in the garden all day (like I did today in fact), or do chores around the house without problem, but once I sit down, hell on earth couldn't move me again. On the plus side, I am sleeping like a baby through the night - pure bliss!

Peeps, it is a major operation you've had, not just a snip! You need to take it slowly for a few weeks! :hug99:

3-4 weeks post op is not long. You should be taking things easy. The lack of all the foods so less calories etc can all be a reason your so tired. Sit back and enjoy rest. I know it must be difficult with youngsters but you should'nt try and run before you can walk so to speak. Good luck xxGaynorxx

Sorry to say but I am 6 month post op and I am hellish tired most of the time. I literally get home in the evening eat, shower and go to bed.
