This happened to me a few times also, its usually related to what my diet consisted of the day before or not enough fluids and/or if I had coffee in the morning and let too much time pass before getting Breakfast Protein in.
Even still I think my blood sugar drops early morning and I hate when I'm driving and this happens. I believe we are just still early out. Its only 10 weeks for me, but every day is a learning experience.

I had the sleeve done almost three months ago. Today at work I almost passed out. I was hot and clamy and sweating. I had the shakes. They caught me just in time and put a cloth on my neck. They sent me home and I called my doctor and they told me to just push fluids. Anybody had this happen. Or any suggestions as to what you would do?

Today makes a week, it's been a little tough.. Pain is pretty much gone today. Having a lot of trouble keeping hydrated. I forget I have to keep drinking.

I'm also July 21st and let me tell you nerves have set in hard!

Glad your doing well! Yes I'm excited but so scared at the same time. I'm worried about complications and how everything will be after surgery. I just pray everything goes well.

I am on day 4 and it has gotten a lot easier, I still feel really tired and have low energy but the headaches and cravings have all but subsided!

My surgery is scheduled for 7/19. I'm in day three of liquid diet. It's soooo much harder than I thought it would be

I lived on good quality chicken broth made by me. When I got to the pre op diet I seriously would have failed if not for that. I was not allowed anything to eat, just Protein shakes, sf drinks, sf Popsicles and broth. Thank god my diet was only 14 days.
I can remember the first 3 being the hardest and by the time I got to the day before where I could have nothing but Clear Liquids my brain was like mush! LOL
My husband simply didn't get that I seriously had brain fog and I can remember jumping down his throat telling him I was going to remove his food and put him on this liquid diet just to see how long he would last.
Well about 6 months after my surgery my hubby wanted to begin losing weight and his doctor suggested trying the same diet just to rid himself of his sugar/carb addiction. He however could have a 4 oz. piece of chicken and a salad with low fat dressing.
I had to laugh because he literal could not make it through day 1 and apologized about 1000 times for his stupidity when I was on a 14 day liquid only diet.
It is hard to do but if you keep yourself really well hydrated it makes it easier. Honestly....then just take 1 day at a time. Don't think about how much time you have left on the diet. You will be at surgery day before you know it.
Good luck!

For my PreOp diet I'm on mostly liquids but can have some veggies and a little meat. I like Water so I have no problem drinking that but my question is what are some other sugar free liquids that I can try?
I obviously drink my milk and Protein shakes and I've tried Popsicles and Gelatin but I'm looking for some new options. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
