Feeling great!

What kinds of activities did you do to celebrate your losses? I am currently 6 lbs away from losing 90 lbs. Trying to think of something to do!

Great work! I'm treating myself to a nice spa vacation if I ever get to 90 like you. That's my goal, but I'm still about 15 away. Congrats!

Has anyone gotten any guidance recently from their dr or NUT about what kind of calorie range we should be in right now? I've started tracking again to keep myself honest, but I'm not sure what I should be shooting for at this stage.

1000-1200 for me, still.

Hi everyone. I don't know where to start on this because I'm still trying to figure out what is going on with my body. All my labs are perfect. Except for my blood pressure. I was never on BP meds before surgery because it was never high enough. I mostly stayed in the normal range. Now days it's been dropping anytime I stand up for too long and I get light headed and dizzy. This has been going on for a year now. I have been to an ear nose and throat doctor and everything there is normal. I am currently seeing a cardiologist who swears I'm salt deficient. I've upped my sodium and nothing has changed. Cardiologist has put me on medications (fludrocort and midodrine) to get my BP to go higher thinking that will stop the lightheaded and dizziness. Still nothing has changed. I have my good days and bad. I know when I'm in a pool I don't have any symptoms of dizziness or anything of the sort.. so I guess I might as well live my life as a mermaid hahaha. But seriously, this is getting on my nerves. I don't know what else to do. I've been going to aquatic therapy to get some form of work out and my weight loss has slowed... which I knew it would going in.. but I figured by now I would have the ability to stand up for longer than 5 mins without trying to pass out.

I just needed to vent. Thank you.

I started intermittent fasting this week. Does anyone have any experience with that?
