Topic: RE: How many calories are you all going for at 6months?
I'm normally around 1000 calories a day.
Topic: RE: Hypoglycemic?? god this isnt good....
I am diabetic. I am on no meds now. But I do experience low blood sugars now. You do feel shakey and like you are starving when it happens. You might want to see if orange juice or some peanut butter will calm it down. Those are the 2 things that have worked best for me.
Topic: RE: DO YOU GET DIZZY??
I have most of my dizzy spells in the morning. I was told it was probably low blood pressure because things go black but to also check my blood sugar. I know the dizziness I feel in the evenings is blood sugar because I have taken my blood sugar and the spells feel different. From what I understand it is normal but you might want to have it checked just in case. but if you are like me you won't have a dizzy spell at the doctor's office.
Topic: RE: Have lost the same two pounds two weeks in a row:-(
Hiedi,
I was doing the same thing. I did the 5 day pouch test and it put be right back on track.... You can do it! Don't worry. We all stall for a week or two.
Topic: Have lost the same two pounds two weeks in a row:-(
I have lost and gained the same two pounds two weeks in a row, and I'm very frustrated. I seem to be on a very long stall right now and am very discouraged and depressed about it. I'm so worried that I am gaining all the weight back that I have lost. I have lost 80lbs since my surgery date, last week it was 82.5 lbs. I have had so many failures in the past regarding my weight, I am freaking out!!
Thanks for reading,
Hiedi

Topic: RE: DO YOU GET DIZZY??
Hey Julie... I don't like the sounds of that. I'm sure it's nothing SERIOUS but I definitely would call my doc if I were you. When did you have your blood work done last? It could be something that will show up in there. We are all going to HAVE to keep a good close watch on how our levels change for the rest of our lives. And when our bodies talk to us like yours is, we need to listen! Our malabsorbing bodies are not like others. It's a matter of life and death for us now. Let us know how you make out after you talk to you doc.
