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 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! 😞
