Loosing to much
I know this sounds wierd but I am loosing to much now. Was doing great. and then after I move to Burney Ca. I started to loose tomuch. My goal is 135 and now I am 110 and seems like just skin and boones I thought I would never ever be complaining but this does scare me and my blood sugar is droping to 53 2x a day but have increased my protien and that does seem to help.
Thanks for any imput.

When my surgeon was afraid I was losing too much, he suggested high calorie liquids with my meals such as glucerna or ensure, (I am lucky I don't really have much of a dumping reflex, so you might want to try a few to find what works for you). He also suggested I add a few carbs to each meal.As far as your blood sugar dropping, if you eat every 3 to 4 hours like I was taught post-op, that might resolve the issue for you, that might even be a way to use the ensure or glucerna, as between meal snacks. This is only my second time on this forum, but if you e-mail me at [email protected], I will probably get it faster. Best of luck and let me know how you're doing.
