If u were taking blood pressure meds prior to surgery and after losing weight your BP is down. This might cause you to be dizzy

I had this happen & it was dehydration. I was drinking fluids but they were all caffeinated (iced tea, coffee, mio energy) which is not adequate, since caffeine is a diuretic. Once I started drinking things w/out caffeine I was fine again. I hope it is as simple as that in your case. Definitely ask your doctor about it.

I am 6 months as well...sleeve sisters! I get dizzy occasionally...so low blood sugar, dehydration, just down right not eating enough. For me, I have sinus trouble and that makes me very dizzy sometimes. I had no idea it was connected. Throwing that out there in case it makes sense for u.

This happened to me twice. The first time I was taken off my high blood pressure medication. Thw second time I was told I am not eating enough calories. I thought I was eating enough.

I get this sometimes if I get up too fast, I think for me its from the low Cal intake. When I was a teenager I use to do the starve yourself diet basically and I used to pass out and 1 time I passed out at work and it was so ebarrassing! and it can be dangerous! Watch yourself

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
