    is it different for lesbians?

    i would not see why you would get grief from the lesbian community i would like to think they would be non judgmental mostly because they don't want to be judged for choices they make in there life this is just my thoughts.

    passing out

    Hey guys im 6 mos out and have always gotten whoozy if i get up to fast but it only last a second ..last night i git up after watching a movie and was fine went to the cabinet to grab a snack counted out my little serving of reduced fat cheezits (not the whole box like before) put the box back and felt really bad and passed out cold on the floor injuring my tailbone on the way down knocking the kitchen table back a couple feet and knocking all the chairs over with one landing on me so my wife says when she ran into the kitchen and helped me up sat in the chair and passed out again so twice within minutes she called 911 they came checked my vitals but i refused to go with them.I will contact my doctor on monday but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this after wls...My sugar and vitals where fine when checked later about 3 am i was still laying in bed i felt like passing out again and had a horrible pain in my chest where my pouch would be " I did not eat the cheezits " after all that i was no longer looking for a snack of any kind ....thanks for any input Don
