Down too low?? 105 lbs and still dropping
I know what a thing to fuss about...
I went to my doc a week ago and he was soooooooo pleased with my weight loss. Last week I was 109 lbs.... Today Im down to 105 lbs... I wear size 3's now without a problem.
All My labs came back great!!!!
And my doc didnt have a problem with my weight loss at all.
Now my BMI is 18 which is underweight...
I know it will stop.. guess I just dont know when...

Sheila,
I know you've been worried about this for a while. How many calories are you taking in a day? You are having a problem upping what you are eating? It sounds like it might be time to go into eat mode and to break all "the rules". I am surprised your doctor was happy with you being down so low.

Shelia,
I was in the same situation up until I started making my own trail mix and snacking on it all day. I use deluxe mixed nuts with raisins and dried cranberries. I do not have any problems with the natural sugar from the cranberries and rasins. The calories from the nuts help me keep the weight on. I am 5 feet tall and weigh 100 pounds and feel wonderful!!! I have maintained, but have not lost anymore weight since eating this way.
((((HUGS))))

I only wish I had your problem. I'm sure I could stop the weight loss quickly by reverting to some loved pre-op foods. It's hard for me to relate since my weight loss stopped sooner than I would have liked. My surgeon set a goal and I met it but I'd like to lose another 15-20 lbs.
Are you being honest with yourself? Do you log your food at this point to see how many calories you are consuming daily? If you really want to stop the weight loss maybe you could add a protein bar as a snack between meals a couple of times a day. Or something even more decadent than a protein bar since you lost 4 lbs in one week.
Best wishes on being able to stop the weight loss soon.
