? of the day

Has anyone experienced a problem with dizziness when you get up. Let me explain that a little better. Everytime I stand up I get dizzy/lightheaded like I'm going to pass out. My doctor told me to just get up slow and wait a few seconds before I walk. Not always do-able...plus i always forget until I start walking and get dizzy. Not smart I know!! I keep an eye on my blood pressure so I know that it isn't running to low. I just I just want to know if I'm the only one with this problem. I feel like I should be over all my little healthy problems now!! I feel good most of the time, but now just strange little things happen. Like the dizziness. Steph 350/172/165

Stephanie, I had dizziness early on and I think mine was due to insufficient liquid intake, how much are you drinking? One of my angellette's that had surgery in July is experiencing the same thing right now. Please post this to the main board too, see if someone there might be able to help. Dana Wow look at you 7 lbs to your goal, yea! I'm stuck at 6 for 2 weeks now .

Dana I'm definitely getting a lot of fluid intake. i drink a lot! i've always been a big drinker so no problems there. I'm going to post the same thing on the main board like you said...maybe someone there has the answer. who knows. Yeah i'm 7 pounds to my goal but who knows if i'll change my goal once i get there. depends on how i look and feel then. it's taken me awhile to get back on the losing track but i switched up my exercise route and it seems to be working...i've lost 5 pounds this week so far!! you'll get to goal sooner than you realize girl! you always give me great advice or at least point me in the right direction. Thanks!! Steph 350/172/165
