Dizzy at 6 Weeks

Hi Everyone: Just wondering if anyone is getting dizzy when standing or jerking. I had my surgery on 7/19/05 and haven't had any problems until now. Any information would help. Thanks Kim

Are you getting all your fluids everyday?

Hi Peter: Thanks for your reply. Since this has been happening I increased my water to +80 oz. It does seem to be working. I thought 64 oz. was enough! Kim

I noticed when in the state of ketoses our bodies all react in different ways. And one for me is dizzyness. So this could also be the reason for your dizzyness. What are you eating at this stage???? If your getting 15-20 carbs only a day this will be the reason for the dizzness. If you up your carbs just a bit it should stop. As well as getting enough water in. hope this helps, Bonnie

Are you on blood pressure medicine? I've noticed my blood pressure is going down quite a bit as I lose weight and I was dizzy too. I figured it was my body's reaction to lower blood pressure?? Good Luck.. JO

When I went for 6 week check-up I asked about being Dizzy ... My Dr. reply was I wasn't getting in enough liquids that I need to drink more and spend it out all through out that day ... ... Once I started doing that I felt alot better and haven't had one since then ... Deanna
