Are there any anemics in the house?

Yasmine

One last chance
I went for my weigh in today and had a chat with my pharmacist about my energy levels and my dizzy spells.

I've mentioned before that my energy was shooting and I felt so happy and energetic and was really enjoying myself, but now, I'm moody, I feel horrible, I'm always tired and my dizzy spells haven't gotten any better.

So he measured my blood pressure and turnes out my blood sugar is quite low. He's going to check with the LT peeps for more information.

Just wondering if there are any people on here who are anemic and how you do and if you have to take anything extra with LT? I hope not, because I'm not losing as fast as I had hoped and I don't want to slow it down any further.
 
Hey,

I'm anaemic so I have dizzy spells and low energy whenever I'm on LT. Never taken anything to help manage it though. When I'm not on LT I have to eat lots of iron rich foods but once in a while that's not enough and doctor prescribes iron tablets for a while.

Hope you manage to sort it out.

Cheers for the info. Do you take those pills whilst on LT as well? how are you finding it being anaemic on LT?
 
No I don't take any supplements while on LT. The ones I use are prescribed by the doc and have to be taken after meals (which is not an option while on LT)

Generally feel very tired and light headed while on LT but think I'm getting used to it, I'm now 7 weeks in! My blood pressure also goes really low. Can't wait to hit target weight and start eating my iron rich spinach and beef :)
