I can't remember...I don't think so. Oh wait! I did have one time. I was on a walk and I swear I was going to pass out. I would have called someone to pick me up, but (of course) I forgot my cell phone that time. It sucked. It felt like forever trying to get home. My legs felt like they were going to buckle. I haven't forgotten my cell phone since!!! The dizzy spells should subside soon. By the end of month one, I was 100% back to my old self (minus 27 pounds).

I agree with the other ladies. There is s difference in being tired and feeling so weak that it causes you to fall. Call the doc, you may be severely dehydrated and require an IV. Dehydration is serious! It can cause many health problem.

It was hard to ge****er in the first month, but it does get easier. Eventually you will be able to take larger quantities at one time (big gulps). Hang in there....it is worth it! I'm down 44 pounds from my pre op weight in just two months.... It is worth it!

I would definitely suggest calling your PCP or even PB and letting them know. You may need to be put on an IV to get some fluids into you.
I'm sorry you are having a hard time with recovery, much love and hugs to you Miss Janet.

Technically, I am still in bed. Just at a point now where Im snoozing while using the laptop. Im heading out east today for an overnighter, so Im just thinking of what I need to get done before I go. Plus I love those Vegie Chili and Joe packets!!! Thank you so much.
