Getting lightheaded



Recommended Posts

I'm a little over 8 months post op and the past few days I've been getting light headed whenever I stand up and walk. At one time I had to hold on to the door frame. I will admit I haven't been eating right lately but idk if that has anything to do with it. Any suggestions?

Start eating right. Get in all your Protein, drink all your Water. What's your calorie intake vs exercise level? Are you taking your Vitamin supplements? What did your 6 month bloodwork look like?

What does your doctor say? Do you check your blood pressure? Are you on meds?

I agree with @Kindle. Make sure you are getting in all of your Protein and fluids, and make sure you are taking your Vitamins and supplements.

But, we aren't medical doctors. If something doesn't feel right and you are experiencing something out of the ordinary, see your doctor.

Sounds like low BB, dehydration, or low/high sugar. If you are on meds they may need to be adjusted. Like the others said you may want to recalibrate yourself and get back to sleeve basics and see your doc. Mine dizziness was due to low blood pressure which in turn was due to dehydration and needing a lower dose of BB meds. I hope you feel better soon.

      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...

        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.
