Feeling dizzy

[SleeveMeAlone214 6]

So today was my first day back to work (I am a server/bartender) and about three hours into my shift I felt horrendous...

Had my sleeve done 10/28

My diet consists of 2 Protein shakes and a Greek yogurt and sometimes a sugar free snack at night. Today I brought my yogurt to work with me.

In the past, I'd keep myself running by taking sips of soda here and there and now that I'm doing only Water I feel like I just worked out to the point I'm going to throw up!

I feel dizzy and light headed. Anybody experience this? Anybody have some advice?

Thanks!

I would say that you are not getting enough food or nutrition to keep up with being on your feet so much. Your body is still healing. What stage are you in on your plan? There needs to be food/puree/liquids added to your daily grind.

I'm still on "full" liquids until this Friday...

I'm meeting Protein and liquid goals but maybe it's not enough? It's hard enough to consume what I've been!

You are probably burning off much more then you are taking in. I know it is hard to get more in, but do what you can. You may end up having to take more time off work.

Are you taking a bariatric Multivitamins? It may be something to consider.

My doctor say we don't feel tired because of the low caloric intake, we are tired because we are still healing from major surgery. As long as you are meeting Water and Protein goals, and taking Vitamins, I don't know what else you could do. Most people go back to a desk job it seems. I am 2 weeks out today and needed a nap this afternoon (busy weekend) but then I am older than most of you guys.

I am 2 months out and when I'm at work and forget to eat it's like as soon as 2 bites kick in, I see the haze lift. The scary part is I often don't realize the haze was there in the first place.

I have felt faint. It happened on a day where I skipped my afternoon snack because I was busy at work. I was commuting home by transit and had to call my husband to come pick me up. I learned my lesson. My calorie intake is too low to skip anything. Now I make sure I'm getting my 3 meals and 2 Snacks in no matter what.

Most important I found in the early days was my Vitamins.

I was also sleeved on 10/28. I haven't went back to work yet, but I notice when I do go out to the grocery or anywhere I get really worn out quickly. Hang in there!

In the beginning I blacked out a number of times at the gym. It's from the lack of calories and your body trying to adjust.
