Not feeling good



Recommended Posts

I had my gastric bypass done on Nov 17. I still am always tired. I’m also dizzy a lot. It may be not enough liquid but I don’t think so. Any ideas? Anybody Thanks

Have you kept track of how much you are taking in: Fluids and Protein. It really helps to write everything down, so then you will see where you are at. Sorry this is going on. When I got dizzy and had heart palpataions it was because I was dehydrated. I thought I was ok with it but I found out I wasn't. KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!

Have you been taking your Vitamins? Get your blood work done if you can. Just to make sure you don't have a Vitamin deficiency.

Also the dizziness can be a blood pressure issue always better just to put in a call to your Dr.

Have you had any previous issues with blood sugar prior to surgery (ie. insulin resistance)? I'm having a lot of problems with low blood sugar since my surgery in the fall and that can certainly make you feel dizzy and tired...

I haven't had WLS yet but I know that if my Iron is low I get dizzy and get weird palpitations. Def have your iron levels checked.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
