Exhaustion

Feb 02, 2010

Wow -- incredible exhaustion like I have not known before...wasn't even this bad when I had my breast reduction last year.  I do one thing and have to rest cuz i'm tired and out of breath.  I do not like this at all.  I want to feel a little more energy and can't believe it could be weeks before I do.  I don't understand how people go back to work after a week or two.  I would not make it thru the day.

On the upside -- wow...7.6 pounds since surgery a week ago...puts my total loss at 22 pounds...and in another half pound, I  wouldn't qualify for surgery. LOL

I've opted not to switch to pureed foods for another week at the advice of my surgeon.  I am thinking about food alot but have heard this too is normal.  And my thinking about it is really about healthy items i can have as soon as I begin eaing -- tuna, shrimp salad, refried beans, etc.  I know it will be hard to eat much cuz I just had yogurt and couldn't eat much before I was full...but still,, its just the ability to have a bite.
