My BMI = 24.9
I am now wearing a comfortable size 10. To tell the truth, I dreamed of being a size 12 again some day. I had a secret dream to fit into a 10. But, I wouldn't have admitted it to anyone because I didn't think it would ever happen.
I actually gained weight before surgery even though I was eating less. So, I am not the one to ask. Before surgery, I was going to eat everything I could get my hands on. I counted down meals until surgery instead of days. But, life got in the way and I missed a lot of meals. My PCP dropped the level on my thyroid meds too low, so I started gaining. My surgeon wasn't happy with me, but I think he understood. Or, at least he didn't cancel my surgery.
