12 days post-op and really, really tired

Is it normal to be exhausted two weeks after surgery, or should I talk to my surgeon about it? I am 12 days post-op (Laproscopic - Realize Band), and I am exhausted. I've seen similar questions, but those people said they have not been getting adequate liquids or protein. I have been religious about getting/tracking my protein (90+ gms/day) and liquids (64+ oz/day). I am also taking my multivitamin and extra vitamin D. I am sleeping 10-12 hours a night and still really, really tired by early afternoon. Did I go back to work too soon? I went back to work 11 days after surgery (surgery was on 4/9 and I went back to work on 4/20); I figured it would be okay, because I have a desk job (I'm an attorney). Any suggestions?
