Well I feel great now, but around my 7th month post op I felt awful! I would feel dizzy upon standing and began having fainting spells that lead to hospitalizations. It was determined by my doctors n other specialists, that the reason for all that was the rapidness of the weight loss. Keep in mind... That by 6mons post op I had already lost more than 100 lbs.

The weight has been slow now so it has given my body time to adjust. No more fainting! Thank goodness.

Oh man so you're just 13 lbs thinner than me and the same height, you seem so much thinner than me though. I hope these 13 lbs really make a difference on me! :]

Ugh omg I've been having dizzy spells where I thought I would faint (almost 5 months post-op) and my friend who's in the medical field thinks I have low blood pressure now due to the weight loss... Was blood pressure a factor for you as well? I hope I don't actually faint :|

Yes.. The fainting was due to low blood pressure. Just becareful and stand up slowly. I fainted 4 times in two months but the first time I got a concussion.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
