I know how you feel. An 18 feels unreal

Learned new things today. Going through a very rough time suddenly, as soon as I really start to feel the stress I am now craving carbs like crazy. French fries, Pasta, potato of any sort. But I'm no longer able to use food to deal with the hard times. So, I have a feeling over the next several weeks there is a lot more to learn.

Hey everyone! I've been away for a long while but just got the app for my iPad so I'm back. Missed you all! Lots has happened. I had my RNY on August 28th. Got married 11/12/13 quit my job of almost 9 years just 2 weeks before Christmas and am now a stay at home mom and wife for a while. Feeling great! I shopped in Old Navy for the first time in years. Bought size 18 jeans last month and already think I need a 16. Bought a size XL in ladies coat. No more men's sizes for me! I even bought a medium size men's hoodie and it fits great! I bought a large t shirt while at the races, and it is a little tight on me but won't be long until it fits great. Went to Silver Dollar City on Dec 30th and had no fear of fitting into anything. Got to ride anything I wanted. Down 70lbs since surgery.

I went to a funeral yesterday and everybody kept calling me twiggy or skinny. When I looked in the mirror I thought I looked slimmer than usual. I've got to see how many inches I've lost.

I get the same feeling off and on since Surgery 5 months ago. I haven't checked into it. But what I have noticed is that it occurs to me whenever I haven't had enough Protein or nutrition in my system. I do good when I have at least 20-30 grams of protein in my body for Breakfast. If I can do that, then I usually don't get that light headed & dizzy feeling whenever I stand up. Hope this helps you. Hang in there!

[cynthia f 31]

Thanks so much just hope it's not serious

[Emeree 19]

I hope not either. Maybe we both ought to check it out. My appointment is not til feb 10th, but I will ask when I do go. Speaking of getting nutrition in. I have to go and put something into the tank now to stay on top of things. It is a struggle isn't it! Cheers.

Off my omeprazole for 2 weeks and now I possibly have an ulcer. Yes, it can happen that fast. I'm now on liquids for a couple days to see if my symptoms clear up. If not, I get the scope!

Are you eating and drinking enough? Mild dehydration makes me dizzy, as does not getting enough to eat. Waiting too long between meals will too. My nut suggested 5-6 mini meals when my activities prevent me from eating on a normal schedule.

[cynthia f 31]

Thanks a lot that's what I was told to drink and eat small but often and it hard but trying thanks for your help
