Hey everybody

I had surgery April 1, 2013. I've lost 150 pounds to date. My problem is low blood sugar between breakfast and lunch and then mid afternoon. Low as in 65. Very shaky.

Thanks!

I have experienced "late stage" dumping (which normally occurs two to three hours following eating) in the form of reactive hypoglycemia a few times. First time it happened I checked my blood sugar and it was 37. In my case, eating just about anything with sugar sees the symptoms resolve within 10-20 minutes. But this is not a daily occurrence for me and without exception, I have always been able to identify the food that caused the problem. How long after eating your breakfast does the hypoglycemia occur? Would appear to be a totally different scenario to experiencing low blood sugar on a daily basis unless your breakfast is normally Cereal or something else with a high sugar content.

Have you talked with your doctor? If not I would recommend that you do. Hypoglycemia can be serious in some cases. I don't think it's common but it can result in loss of consciousness and worse under certain circumstances. The good news is that it's usually very treatable.

Huge congratulations on your weight loss!!

I usually eat eggs with a little bit of cheese in a low carb wheat wrap.
