Hi, I get light-headed right after I eat and then it goes away. I have a diet hi in breads n deserts for dinner and bfast. I balance that out with salads at lunch. Any suggestions as to what is going on when I get light-headed? Thank you. Rolling Eyes

How many calories are you eating? Are you dieting too hard? When I used to diet hard I used to get very light headed. Try eating a little more often. It is very dangerous to starve your body.
