Sharon Lane 4 Posted July 2, 2013 I have read about quite a few people who develop orthostatic hypotension after wls for one reason or another. Ive subscribed to a few ppl on youtube who have this same issue since surgery. I hope it gets better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TapSnap 357 Posted July 3, 2013 mbasile I have the same issue when standing up to fast I get light headed. I think its because I am not eating enough earlier in the day or after working out. I am 5 1/2 months out at the moment and down 122lbs. Started at 360 down to 238. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purrplelover 48 Posted July 3, 2013 When this happened to me when I lost weight before It was because of dehydration. Make sure you are getting all of your fluids in. It could also be a lack of Iron. Take a look at how you are eating and make sure you are not iron deficient. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
