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

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.

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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
