Hi there! I am on week number two and I get dizzy every time I stand up...see stars for about ten seconds then I am fine. Is this normal? I am very healthy and am doing six packets a day... Is there something else I should add or is this a warning sign of something else??

Any opinions are much appreciated!

Thanks & good luck! I lost 50 lbs. 15 years ago on Medifast!! It works!!

Hello and welcome

You may try having a cup of bouillion or one of the fast soups to relieve the feelings of dizziness..I found for me that the extra bit of sodium took care of it immediately. Nice as well, that two cups a day are allowable!

Again, welcome and good luck to you!

Do you have high blood pressure? If so and if you are on medication, your blood pressure could be dropping and you could need less medicine.

Here are 3 good posts about what you might be experiencing (might) I had it, and I think a few others did. There is no real cure, it just happens when you are having such a small amount of calories. The good news is eventually it does go away.

It’s called Orthostatic Hypotension. (related exactly to low blood pressure)
