    Feeling Dizzy

    I sometimes feel very dizzy when sitting up in bed. I am 4 months post op & I've lost 52 pounds. The dizzy feeling has only happened for the last few days. Does anyone else have this dizziness when sitting up or even for no reason? What causes the dizziness? I go to my doctor this Wednesday for a checkup, I will ask him.
  2. I didn't have an appetite for about 2 weeks after I was sleeved. I didn't know when I was hungry or when I was full. I asked my doc & he said it was normal.

    Protein Gems Jello (Orange)

    I found pretein gem jello online. I think I also found it at Walgreens. I'll try Walgreens first, then if I can't find it I will order it online. I think They have 25 grams of protein. I'll try all of the flavors. I hope I find them, I can't wait to try them.
  5. Mince, hang in there. Focus your energy on your little girl and the food you eat, the exercise will come in time. Have you tried my fitness pal to help track your food. The my fitness pal kinda keeps me in check and keeps me on track w/ my calories, carbs & protein. You are a beautiful person, so be beautiful to yourself. Take a ME day for you & do something nice for yourself. Hang in there. Btw I'am Mermaid Girl - sleeved on July 31 - 3 months out I've lost 50 pounds.

    No Pre Op Diet

    I was on the Atkins diet for a week. Eat whatever I wanted with high protein & low carbs. The next week was liquids then the night before diet. I didn't go through months of waiting only two weeks then the surgery. I only lost 5 pounds before my surgery. Maybe your doc didn't put you on a diet is because you have a lower BMI. I had a very high BMI.

    The Only Protein Drink I Can Tolerate

    Where do you buy the unjury protein powder mix?
  13. Where do you buy the pb2 and the torani sugar free syrups?
  14. Has anyone had the liquid beef protein shots? They smell bad & taste bad, however they have 50 grams of protein. I thought they would be better for you than the new whey brand. I mix the beef protein shot with my tea or flavored water. Does anyone know anything about the beef protein shots?

    July Sleevers----Where Ya At? :-)

    Yes I do twice a day. I had been taking it before my sleeve however my fingernails started growing after my sleeve. After my sleeve I started drinking 45 grams of Protein with my Water every day. Plus the protein that I eat. Could it be the protein?

    July Sleevers----Where Ya At? :-)

    My doctor was surprised that my fingernails grew so much after my surgery. Do you know why they grew so much? I have never had long fingernails in my life. Maybe I was lacking in protein before my surgery and didn't realize it.

    July Sleevers----Where Ya At? :-)

    I was sleeved on July 31st. I have lost 33 pounds so far. This is the best thing I have ever done. My fingernails have grown a huge amount since my surgery & I feel healthier also. I went to my 1st Weight loss support group last night. It was awesome. Everyone there had the sleeve, lap band or gastric bypass.
  21. I started teaching 2 weeks after my sleeve. I teach Art (kindergarten - 5th grade). I didn't have any complications or problems with my sleeve. I couldn't lift anything over 10 pounds. I bet you will be just fine.
