Happy Monday all! Well, I hit my step PR today during my walk - 4k steps. It's not much, but it's progress so I'll take it. And I wasn't dizzy after I got home. I wish I could have stayed out longer since it's so beautiful out, but I started feeling a bit woozy so it was time to pack it up.· 4 replies
I also increased my calories from 800-950cals, so I'm wondering if that's what is helping with the dizziness. In the grand scheme, I know it's a low amount of calories for anyone, but it's like I almost feel guilty for eating "so much". I'm only 5 weeks out as of tomorrow, and I've seen people posting 600-800cal/day at 5weeks. I'm 6'0 and I'm wondering if that may have anything to do with it. I don't want to undereat if that could be what is making me so tired and dizzy, but I also have this fear that it's a slippery slope and before I know it I'll be back to overeating. Of course, I'm doing all that I can to prevent that, but this is something I feel I'm gonna worry about until I learn to trust my sleeve more.

Hon, I think it's great you upped you calories. Your height does make a difference too, so good job. The time I want to walk and keep on walking is always in the mornings as I'm taking my kids to camp. But then it sucks, cause I can't and have to go to work. Lol. I did a small workout at home this evening though. Progress...that's key; not perfection. 😊 Keep up yours.
-
Morning walks are so great. I wish I could get myself to sleep before 1 or 2 am so I get up in the morning and get out there, but I tend to stay up late :/
"Progress...that's key; not perfection." - Great line! I will be sure to keep that in mind. Thank you!

I am 6 weeks out and I can eat close to 800 calories so I think you are doing well. You are taller so I do think you will need more calories.
If you are worried about eating too much just make sure your meals and snacks are 4 oz or less. It is very hard to overeat when you measure out your portions. I am easing into my workouts just like you are. I think this is smart because you don't want to injure yourself.
-
Thank you for the advice. The only food that I eat over 4oz is my cottage cheese and apple sauce which comes out to 6oz in total, but it takes me about an hour to eat.
Yes, I am also worried about injuring myself. My knee pain is improving and I noticed I haven't had an attack of plantar fasciitis in some time, but I worry about overdoing it on my knee, so I'm still babying it.

Today is my 8 month Surgiversary!!! I'm down 90lbs from starting weight, down 113lbs from my high weight! I'm so close to Onderland I can taste it! (It's low carb, so I'm sure it's fine.)· 0 replies
I celebrated by starting off the day with an hour at the gym. Did 30 minutes on the treadmill completing Week 3 Day 3 of the C25K and then did the 30 minute express workout at Planet Fitness!
