You know how you can sometimes get a little bit lightheaded in a hot shower? (Happens to me all the time.) It's a combination of 2 things usually: hot Water on out skin opens up a bunch of capillaries in your skin and muscles (skin reddens) and a lot of blood rushes out of your inside parts to your skin. If you're dehydrated, that hot water effect is amplified and it can make you feel really lightheaded or dizzy for a little bit until your capillaries go back to normal. That's why it's super important to drink water even if you're not an WLS patient before showering up after the gym or getting in the hot tub, otherwise you can get disoriented and maybe even fall. Us, WLS-ers are prone to dehydration so I'm guessing that's what happened to you! Hope you feel better!!

      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.
