Bad afternoon...

This afternoon I got very ill at the end of my workday. I felt suddenly nauseated, weak all over, felt like I was going to have diarhheah, my heart was palpitating, and I was dizzy as well. I think I figured out that it had just been too long since I'd eaten anything. I had my high protein lunch at around 11:30-12:00, and this happened at 4:00-4:30. I truly felt like I was going to pass out and vomit. I am still not feeling well, but am a bit better. Not sure if this is because of not eating, (which I just forgot to grab a little snack because I wansn't hungry) or if I'm dehydrated. I am still not able to drink enough.
I have lost exactly 39 pounds as of today.  That is 14% of my total body weight, and 28% of my excess weight that I want to lose.  
Oddly enough, my hair seems to be growing.  I was worried my hair would fall out to some degree which is common, but maybe with me taking the biotin it is preventing that from happening.  *hope*
Relatively speaking, I have had  very few "OMG I feel horrible"  episodes, and I feel very fortunate.  I may have to plan on eating every 2-3 hours to hopefully prevent what happened today.
Overall, I am feeling fabulous and I am loving my sleeve.
