Orthostatic hypertension since starting weightloss. How to prevent this?

Since 3 weeks I started eating in a calorie deficit again. My calorie intake varies from 1200-1600.

When I stand up I get dizzy and lightheaded for a few seconds. It is starting to get really annoying since i’m afraid to fall over or faint in public.

I did not have this before. My calorie deficit is not that big, like i’m not starving myself. I’m also very overweight.

I don’t understand where this is coming from.

I want to walk more to be more active but i’m afraid to faint.
