I was getting a little dizzy upon standing a little while back. I am under a PCP's care for blood pressure. Since he have cut me to half dose on my BP meds, I have not had any dizziness upon standing. Do either of y'all have known blood pressure issues?

No I don't have blood pressure problems...I think I eat enough and get my Vitamins so I have no idea, but it's a lousy feeling.

Be sure to update with the results as we probably have the same thing going on

So I had my bloods drawn they think It is my Iron and B12 levels. I was taking B12 once a week now she said take 3xs a week. And I have been put on a daily Iron supplement. Also they think I am dehydrated but I drink plenty of liquids so I dont think that is right. But I will do as they say and see what happens.

I think we're in the slow loser club...I'm at 56 at 4 months...my husband (sleeved the same day) is down 90 pounds! I hear we're not supposed to compare ourselves with others...so I keep telling myself. :)

I don't want to kill myself exercising just to lose the weight quicker because I know I will not maintain the routine once I go back to work (I'm a teacher so I'm off for the summer). Also, I think it will be easier to not snack during the day once September rolls around...right now I'm home with my two young kids that eat every 5 minutes...they're not helping my cause!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
