lazy?

[psalmist]

Ok. It has been a little whiles sense my surgery. I just recovered from the flu but I just feel so freaking lazy. I feel good, don't get me wrong. I just feel like sittin' around rather than getting up to do something like a small project. Not chronicly. . . I got up this morning and my wife was doing some kinda sewing project. Now I am the morning person. . . but I have noticed that I will go in and watch the tube while she is up doing stuff. I wonder, "what's my deal." I should be doing something. . . nah. I thought some of you veterans would have some insight. Granted, while I was sick I didn't feel like doing anything. Overall it lasted about 2 weeks. Anyway. I had surgery on Oct 2nd. I have my first post op echo around the first of april and I really need to cut a few pounds. I have gained them from not being so active. Thanks. Seth

I am not sure if the way you are feeling is unusual after OHS. I am usually a very energetic person with different things in the works. After my OHS, I did not feel like doing anything. I was not depressed. I was not unhappy. I was just content with sitting around doing nothing. I felt like what I call " being in limbo". It lasted for at least 6 months if not more.
I experienced the same thing again this past year. I lost my husband to lung cancer in March 2007. After a short time I went back to work. I was fine at work. But when I got home, I did the bare minimum. This lasted for a long time, until recently. It is only in the last few weeks that I feel like I want to do "stuff", like get my bedroom painted so I can have a bedroom set and dressers again.
I think you will be okay. Just give it time.

Winter is on its way out, and spring will come soon enough!
