Well I feel great now, but around my 7th month post op I felt awful! I would feel dizzy upon standing and began having fainting spells that lead to hospitalizations. It was determined by my doctors n other specialists, that the reason for all that was the rapidness of the weight loss. Keep in mind... That by 6mons post op I had already lost more than 100 lbs.

The weight has been slow now so it has given my body time to adjust. No more fainting! Thank goodness.

Oh man so you're just 13 lbs thinner than me and the same height, you seem so much thinner than me though. I hope these 13 lbs really make a difference on me! :]

Ugh omg I've been having dizzy spells where I thought I would faint (almost 5 months post-op) and my friend who's in the medical field thinks I have low blood pressure now due to the weight loss... Was blood pressure a factor for you as well? I hope I don't actually faint :|

Yes.. The fainting was due to low blood pressure. Just becareful and stand up slowly. I fainted 4 times in two months but the first time I got a concussion.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
