I had the RAY in Oct 2010. It took 3 years to reach goal of 120 lbs. We had a couple of deaths in the family last fall and I started losing we again. I am down to 104 as of this morning. I am 5'1". I have incorporated the protein drinks back into my diet and today decided to eat something every 2 hrs that is a protein.Hopefully that will get me back up to at least 115. At 120 I didn't have a lot of sagging skin but now that is all I  am. Sagging skin & bone.

hugs.. stress can do that to a person...

also - losing too much weight is most likely the only reason to eat more slider foods, drink with food... 

adding proteins and carbs can help with stopping the weight loss.

Good luck.

I would f/u with the surgeon. Possible scope to make sure no problems. I am 11 years out and lost a lot over past year with little effort and am lower than my initially low with a lot more hanging skin, bones sticking out. I need to schedule a scope as well.

I am 5 ft 2 inches tall and according to BMI and weight charts -your current weight may be in the normal range for you - even though it seems too low.  I do agree maybe you need to see your bariatric doctor.  Have you had labs done to make sure you are not deficient in any areas?

Eating protein first, then veggies and fruit is always the way to go.  When I am stressed and don't want to eat - I do have a hot or cold liquid protein drink to make sure I'm getting protein in.

I, too, am sagging skin.  Not much to correct that but plastic surgery.

Hope you can get the help you need.
