noooooo energy after work (3 weeks post op)
I know the whole, 4-6 weeks of tiredness after surgery. I've been prepared. But I want to start getting active after work (I work 730am-6pm and live 45 minutes from work) Everyday I have great intentions of getting home, going to the gym and at least doing the treadmill. I don't know if it's that it's colder and dark when I get home, or the recently post op effects, but I can't get myself there. I make myself dinner. Feed my pets and I'm in bed at 830 (I was never one to be in bed soo early!). I just want to sleep. Any suggestions?? i'm thinking of walking on my lunch
Listen to your body. If it says you are tired. Go to bed. If it says you can run a 5K - well don't listen to that **** either, because runners are just crazy.
Seriously, your body know what it needs.
In another month, after your doc says okay, you will be working out like a crazy woman.
Taking a few more weeks to heal and regain your strength won't stop the weight loss.

Yep! The only way I would run is if someone strapped my boobs and belly up with cranes because I can't stand when my boobs hang and ***** slap my knees for 3 miles.

Thank you , this is one of the many reasons i love you other VSG'ers!!! keeps it in check for me! i'm going to try walking on lunch and just let my body do it's thing and rest when i need it. just would like to be a little toned up when gravity takes it's course and im sagging and swinging lol I do hope to one day be a crazy runner!
I too was feeling tired at that point. Up your protein that will help a bunch and do what you can.
