Hi, everyone! Seems like my story is a pretty common one. Having trouble getting all my fluids in, etc. I was just wondering if anyone else just wanted to sleep ALL the time! I think I'm finally coming out of it, but I had a severe dizzy spell getting up earlier from laying down so much. I'm terrified of getting really dehydrated since that seems to be the main issue for most at the beginning. No nausea or problems keeping fluids down, thankfully.
I was sleeved May 17th and my situation sounds the same. I wanted to sleep the first few days. So after each 10min walk I would climb back in bed. Yesterday I felt more energized and decided to cook Breakfast and dinner for my family...big mistake after dinner I started feeling lightheaded, dizzy, BP was slightly elevated as well as my temperature. I say all of that to say rest is equally as important. As for fluids I've only been able to get down one to two 17oz. bottles of Water or other fluids, at least a couple of popsicles and yesterday was able to get in a 11oz Proteinshake. It gets better with each day so hang in there
