Extremely Sleepy after Eating?

Does any one get that... OMG i feel so tired... Right after they eat? I am just dying... gosh .. at work when i eat i get really tired . and even start to feel really sick at times?

Yes!!! I also get very sleepy after taking a shower or something like that. I just want to crawl into bed! I have noticed though, if I get up early and get in my protein shake and breakfast, take a 30 to 40 minute walk afterwards I seem to have more energy thoughout the day. Hang in there you will feel your energy begin to increase slowly each day.

hey jeannie, well this happens to be when i eat to fast...and i get a lil dizzy sometimes to...i have to remind myself to eat slowwwwwwwwww. have a great day!! julie k

I have heard many stories of this at my support group meetings and it seems that it is a way of "dumping." The people who have told me that they get tired after eating are the ones who don't throw up and get the heart palpatations. It is odd but when they eat too fast or eat too much they get tired and need to sleep. HTH!
