Sleepy

[Guest guest]

Hi Tonya,

My sleepiness started about 2 weeks ago, too, give or take a few days. I don't

understand if it's from lack of sleep, then why would the afternoons and

evenings be better? Looks like a person would get even more tired throughout

the day.

I don't know much about the plateau. My thoughts is that if you've went a

couple weeks or more without losing then I would consider myself to be on a

plateau. I wonder if our bodies just need a break from losing or something? I

will say, too, that I just can't imagine you truly gaining 3-6 pounds of fat.

That could be 3-6 pounds of water. Do you weight first thing of a morning and

are your scales accurate? I try to weight first thing of a morning after I've

emptied my bladder (of course), with no clothes on. Just don't get discouraged,

Tonya... Even though it's really hard not to keep watching for the weight to

fall off, try not to worry about it so much, just know that it is going to come

off. You're not going to stop at 41 Pounds, I'm sure of that! You're doing

great! Around Mother's Day I didn't lose anything for a couple of weeks and

then right before my 2 month anniversary I dropped like 3 pounds and then 1/2

pound for the 3 days following. Yours may come off li!

ke that too.

Keep me posted - - - I'll be your cheerleader!

Your Oklahoma Friend,

Hi almost littermate ,

I'm writing, not because I have any answers for you, but because I'm

experiencing the same

thing. I think some of mine may be lack of sleep - I'm only getting about 6

hours a night so

that may have something to do with it. I noticed that it started about 2

weeks ago or so -

how about yours? I also notice that I have alot more energy in the

afternoons and evenings

which is what is making it difficult to get enough sleep. Let me know if

you find anything

out!!

Another issue I need help with is the fact that at a little over 2 months

post op I seem to

be on a plateau - actually, someone needs to tell me what " qualifies " as a

plateau. On

my 2 month anniversary I was at 279 which was down 41 lbs from surgery. Now

I'm

somewhere between 282 and 285 (obviously moving in the wrong direction). Is

it common

to gain a few pounds through this process? Is it common to go for a few

weeks here and

there without losing?? Even this early in the game?? I've been a little

preoccupied with

the number of calories I've been eating lately too and I don't know if

that's helping or

hindering me. I'm averaging somewhere between 900 -1100 calories a day. Is

that normal??

Any advice or reassurances would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi All,

I've hear some discussion recently about being REALLY tired. At the time

I was feeling better than I had in a LONG time, so I didn't pay attention to

when the exhaustion seemed to set in. But let me tell you I'm not feeling

that " refreshed " now! I am SOOOO tired of a morning, I fight to stay awake

in my office. This has been going on for a few weeks now. I have sleep

apnea and still use my CPAP machine, so I don't feel like that's my problem.

I first thought I was mentally tired which was making me physically tired

from my break up with the boyfriend. But I'm thinking now that isn't the

problem. I get about 8 hours of sleep a night, and seem to sleep pretty

good. I take my mulit-vits 3x per day, vitamin E once a day, along with the

other required post-op meds. Oh, and I started last week taking a liquid

subligual (finally know what that is :-) called Perfect B. It's got all the

B vits in it. My pharmacy didn't have just subligual B-12 (but they are

ordering me some)!

. Anyone know what my problem c

ould be? Is this just something post-op's go through at 2 months post-op?

I had my surgery 3/29/01. When will I quit feeling so sleepy all the time?

Oh, of an afternoon, I normally start feeling better, but the mornings are

MISERABLE!

Thanks for any help you can give me.

I will turn 30 on September 28th - - - If I'm as old as I feel then I must

really be 70! LOL Here lately anyway, I've felt about 70. My age shouldn't be

the problem I don't think. And I don't think of 38 as being old either. My

Precious Daddy died suddenly of a massive heart attack at age 55, and I didn't

consider him " old. " I always feel that he was taken at such a young age!

__________________________________________________--

how old is old? everytime i get older, " old " seems to get further away.

does 38 constitute " old " ?

I am having the same problem! I do not take my vitamins like I am supposed

to so I thought that

was the problem. I am so tired until about 3 in the afternoon. I yawn

hundreds of times a day. I am

exercising regularly and average about 8 hrs of sleep a nite. Some nites I

play tennis or softball

or just walk my dog, but no matter what I choose to do, I'm exhausted!

Does anyone have insight into this?

,

I felt the way you do several weeks ago. I started the subligual

B-12 and the ZMA. After a couple of weeks, I felt better so I'm

guessing one of them does something to boost your energy. I do think

it takes a little while for them to build up in your system so you

see the beneficial effects.

Hope you feel more energetic soon!

If 38 is old, what in the world am I? Young and flirtatious and feisty as

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I'm not sure if my scale is accurate or not - I usually get on it about 3

times and take the best

of the 3. lol. The other thing is that I'm on and off the scale about 10

times a day - at all

different times of the day. I did join WW this week so that I could get an

official weigh in each

week and hopefully put my scale at home away. I'm really hoping that I

don't stop at 41 lbs

and somewhere deep down I know I won't - it's just those old fears of

failure creeping up to

haunt me. Thanks for the reassurance - it helps!!

Only 41, I have struggled just to get down 36 pounds, going

up and down since surgery. I have finally learned that it

will come down - I gained 3 pounds from Friday morning to

Saturday afternoon and now I am down 5 pounds, so don't

worry - it will come off, eventually.

now. I have sleep

apnea and still use my CPAP machine, so I don't feel

like that's my

problem.

I first thought I was mentally tired which was making me

physically tired

from my break up with the boyfriend. But I'm thinking

now that isn't the

problem. I get about 8 hours of sleep a night, and seem

to sleep pretty

good. I take my mulit-vits 3x per day, vitamin E once a

day, along with

the

other required post-op meds. Oh, and I started last

week taking a liquid

subligual (finally know what that is :-) called Perfect

B. It's got all

the

B vits in it. My pharmacy didn't have just subligual

B-12 (but they are

ordering me some)!

. Anyone know what my problem c

ould be? Is this just something post-op's go through

at 2 months

post-op?

I had my surgery 3/29/01. When will I quit feeling so

sleepy all the

time?

Oh, of an afternoon, I normally start feeling better,

but the mornings are

MISERABLE!

Thanks for any help you can give me.

I think it is pretty normal for most people at that stage. It gets better.

Hang on, and take a nap when you need it.

Hi All,

I've hear some discussion recently about being REALLY tired. At the time I

was feeling better than I had in a LONG time, so I didn't pay attention to when

the exhaustion seemed to set in. But let me tell you I'm not feeling that

" refreshed " now! I am SOOOO tired of a morning, I fight to stay awake in my

office. This has been going on for a few weeks now. I have sleep apnea and

still use my CPAP machine, so I don't feel like that's my problem. I first

thought I was mentally tired which was making me physically tired from my break

up with the boyfriend. But I'm thinking now that isn't the problem. I get

about 8 hours of sleep a night, and seem to sleep pretty good. I take my

mulit-vits 3x per day, vitamin E once a day, along with the other required

gosh have you been to your doctor to check your vitamin level--I am not

having this problem but I myself and not sure how others feel, I try to make

sure I have my carbs in the morning an stick with proteins and veggies (low

carb) in afternoon and evening --and space the vitamins out .. not sure if

you are working it the same other than that I am figuring your system is

missing something that is causing your energy , di

I think some of my sleepiness I get is due to the fact

I am sooooo much more active...I am going constantly

so that when I sit down...I get soooooo tired...and

want to nap. I think I am not used to doing all the

things I am doing and my body is saying to slow up a

bit...It hasnt done this much activity in yrs...lol

Anyhow, I am hoping so anyway...

take care
