Feeling Light Headed

You may be on the caffiene come down!

That much water in a short time makes me feel weird.

I have that all the time, cant work out what it is, am going to my docs to find out and will let you know what they suggest and come back to you in case it's a similar problem.

Feel dizzy and bit blurry and defo light headed, just sitting here at my desk. often is worse in the mornings.

sometimes when you drink too much water in such a short amount of time it can dilute the salts in your system, try to space it out over the course of the day, it takes me all day to drink 3 litres, so slow it down

Caffeine withdrawal definitely. But try to space the water out. You shouldn't drink over 2 L and definitely not all before lunch.

You may just be hungry!!! Have you tried eating tiny meals throughout the day instead of 3 squares with a snack?

Whenever I feel lightheaded I know I haven't eaten enough protein for the day. I aim for between 50 and 60. I'll eat some yogurt, a string cheese or something else with a little kick of fat and protein.

Hope you figure out what the cause is!

Yes. 24/7. Dizzy / lightheaded…Happened about 30lbs into my wt loss. I dont believe it had anything to do with the wt loss but for me was coincidence. Feels like a mild beer buzz or something. I have been to 2 different family doctors, had blood work ~4-5 times to include 3 hour glucose, T3, T4, TSH, vitimins, Ultrasound of my thyroid, cardiologist – stress test, 24 hour Halter (sp?) test, Neurologist – can’t remember what the test were, neurosurgeon – CAT scan and MRI of head/ brain, MRI of neck, X-ray of neck, gastrointestinal, ENT – ECOG/ hearing/ ENG etc.., eye doctor, chiropractor. Have not been to allergist yet (appt next week) but take an antihistimine pretty much every day. Blood pressure ranges from 115/70 to 130s/low 80s. 7 day average is ~ 125/75. Average resting HR is ~58-60. It has been going on for over a year. It happened July 2010 driving to the beach and put me in the ER b/c I thought I was going to die it got so bad at one point! So far the doctors have diagnosed as (family doc says stress/ anxiety. Neurosurgeon and ENT have no solution but says only thing they know that can cause my pupils to dilate irregular and the symptoms (seen on a test with microscopic cameras watching my eye movements) can only think maybe migraines (I don’t feel as though I have migraines). Evidently you can have silent migraines. All my test came back fine, everything normal except they noticed my pupils dilating without change of light. Today I still do not know what it is. The neuro said you are in great health, “go live your life” and gave me no restrictions. I work out 2-3x a week and log about ~18 – 30 miles a week running. I would go to the doctor and have a check up and maybe ask to be referred to specialist. If nothing else it’ll help give you peace of mind ruling out anything bad. Stay away from goggle. All that pops up is the bad stuff…been there done that. If you do get resolution to your problem please let me know the diagnosis. While it may be personal, I really need with other ideas to rule out/ confirm what is wrong with me. Good luck and hope all goes well.

I tend to agree with the last guy. You need to eat healthier carbs like brown rice, oatmeal, and veggies and more protein. I also think you might be having caffeine withdrawls cause I know I did and also don't over do it on the water. Everyone has been giving some great advice. Hope you feel better soon.
