So I had my surgery a week ago and started on full liquids today. And all day whenever I eat something I start to get dizzy. Has this happened to anybody else?

Yes, probably to most. Your body is just in shock! Anything in your tummy at this point is very hard for your body to handle. This is normal...no worries. The first two weeks were very difficult for me. It WILL get better. Just take it REALLY slow. Sip, sip, sip. Hang in there! :)

Agreed - it happened to me for the first 2 weeks, in varying degrees.

Okay, that sounds good. I just wanted to make sure that nothing was wrong! I can stick it out if I know it will go away!

Hi-

I was getting aweird flushed feeling when I first started to have full liquids and when I graduated to mushies. Your stomach is a major organ and is taking up a lot of resources in your body right now. I remember feeling like all the blood in my body was rushing to my stomach after I ate to help with digestion. It gets better over time.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
