Almost Passed Out!



Recommended Posts

Ok, I'm posting this as fair warning. If you're not hungry...eat anyways. Eat something. Here's what happened to me. On Friday I had my usual shake for Breakfast. I had a busy day filled with funtastic things to do. Well, now that my body doesnt get hungry, I totally forgot to eat. Saturday morning I woke up & felt a little off, but went on with my morning routine. As the minutes clicked by I realized that everything was going dark & I was shaking really bad. I literally could not stand on my own & felt like I was going to fall. I crawled over to the sink, made my shake then Sat down on the floor & drank it. It was only a matter of minutes before I had my wits about me, but I was home alone & it was super scary. Just wanted to share this so that if your having one of those, "I'm too busy to eat days" you'll eat anyway. Anyone else has this happen?

In the beginning I too hard to remind myself that it was noon and that I had to eat. I lost all hunger sensation from my stomach......now if the head hunger would just go away also that would be even better. You have to have something to eat at meal times even if you have just a shake. You body will shut down as it will think that you are starving. Also it is important to get in your fluids so keep on drinking even if you are not able to sit and eat a meal. You were either dehydrated or possibly suffering from low blood sugar. Each can affect you differently and could have been a combination of both. Glad that you did not pass out, fall and injure yourself.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
