Pre-op day 4
VSG on 06/11/12
Well, after posting about how well I wa doing yesterday, I am really tired & weak today. Having to get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom isn't helping, but even with a good night's sleep, I feel drained. Sound normal? Timing stinks, as today is our school concert (I'm the music teacher!). Just trying to gather enough energy to get through the in- school performance in less than 2 hours and then maybe rest before the evening concert.
My wife and I are on day #3 of our pre-op diet. I must say we are both very drained and tired as well. You are right about having to go to the restroom in the middle of the night! So annoying! I am pretty sure this is the normal reaction to "sugar deprivation" and it should go away before long. I have read that the first 3-5 days are the worst, but once that passes it is very easy. I know we can do this just hang in there!
