Feeling weak/rubber legs



Recommended Posts

A little over 2 weeks out, I went out and was on my feet for about 30 minutes, I felt like my legs might give way on me, had to go back to bed when I got home. I’m trying to get enough Water and Protein, does anyone know if a lack of either would make you feel this way? Took a walk last week and felt the same way. Frustrated.

Water you are dehydrated or your vits/mineral levels are messed up

Get electrolyte powders add them to the water i have the same issue. I bet you are light headed also

Are you taking your vitamins/supplements? I let myself run out a few weeks ago and I felt exactly as you describe. Plus my heart was racing. Dehydration can also definitely make you feel that way. It's super easy to get dehydrated early on because you can't chug liquids, you have to sip slowly.

I agree it's your H2O. I use EnduroPacks liquid Electrolytes spray in my H2O. I was getting bad leg cramps at night when I was first out of surgery. This knocked them out. It's a small bottle and you put 10 squirts in your Water. Good stuff. You can get it on Amazon.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
