I had my six month appointment earlier this month and got the results back from my blood work.  My iron is in the low range which may be causing the dizziness and light headiness.  I was told to increase my red meat consumption if I can tolerate it.  I was down 104.8!!  I am now down 109.1 pounds total.  I think I have hit a stall which I know is normal so I am trying not to worry about it.  I feel really good and the dizziness and light headiness have gotten better. I tried on a pair of size 16 pants and was able to wear them to work!! I have not worn a size 16 in so many years I don't remember when, high school maybe!  I will try to post a new picture of me soon.  Crazy when I see the difference!

Congrats on losing over 100lbs!  I wonder if my iron is low, I get dizzy upon standing here and there. I haven't been to the clinic for my 6 month, they just sent me the lab order so I'll do that and then go.  Keep up the great work!

I just had my labs done last Thursday.  My 6 month drs appt is this Thursday.  I am curious to see what my labs are.  I have not felt dizzy but I am more tired than Ithink I should be. 
I have lost 114 lbs with 94 lbs since surgery.  The other 20 lbs were lost the month prior when they put me on the diet.  I can not believe I have gone from wearing a size 26 to a 14!  Good luck to you and work on bring up that iron!
