My doc says to drink 8oz of Fluid per hour. I don't feel like I can do that. So I don't quite meet the 64oz daily. Now today I'm weak and dizzy. I see my doctor today. What do you guts think?

I think that you are dehydrated and need to work on getting your Fluid intake in as much as possible. Ask your Dr. for an IV to help get you hydrated. This is definitely hard to get in our fluid intake due to the stomach being so swollen....Glad you have an appt today......It will help.... :)

:( you are struggling.......but dehydration is extremely dangerous, it thickens your blood, could cause kidney problems, or a stroke. So I try to be extra careful when it comes to dehydration.... However it is really hard to get in that much of Water in an hour......so get in as much as you can. You can do this.... :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
