Not feeling good



Recommended Posts

I had my gastric bypass done on Nov 17. I still am always tired. I’m also dizzy a lot. It may be not enough liquid but I don’t think so. Any ideas? Anybody Thanks

Have you kept track of how much you are taking in: Fluids and Protein. It really helps to write everything down, so then you will see where you are at. Sorry this is going on. When I got dizzy and had heart palpataions it was because I was dehydrated. I thought I was ok with it but I found out I wasn't. KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!

Have you been taking your Vitamins? Get your blood work done if you can. Just to make sure you don't have a Vitamin deficiency.

Also the dizziness can be a blood pressure issue always better just to put in a call to your Dr.

Have you had any previous issues with blood sugar prior to surgery (ie. insulin resistance)? I'm having a lot of problems with low blood sugar since my surgery in the fall and that can certainly make you feel dizzy and tired...

I haven't had WLS yet but I know that if my Iron is low I get dizzy and get weird palpitations. Def have your iron levels checked.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
