Last 10 lbs
Keeping your protein up will not stop the hair loss but will help it to not continue. What you are losing now is the result of right after surgery, it just takes a while to show up. Are you taking 2 100% mulits a day? I still do at 5 yrs out. You can get an extra Vit A to supplement with. You want to stay on top of your vits and mins so you can be healthy long term.

I am taking extra vit A, my doctor recommended, no I don't take 2 multivits daily, its hard for me to tolerate food, eating never feels right, eating is only to survive, yes my doctor knows all this. I recently lost my job so eating and sleeping has been difficult for me plus I lost my healthcare. I send 6-9 hours daily sending my resume, call backs and interviews. Even my walking routine had stopped so right now my life changes are overwhelming, yet I remain hopeful.
Aw, stress doesn't help any of it. Hope you get a job soon and health care.

Does 125 put you at a Normal BMI? 125 was my goal weight too but I ended up going down to 106 and then with the bounce back (everyone has it) I am in the 119-121 range.

Welcome to our LW Board!! Are you in your "normal" BMI range? Increase your calories with Protein to get off those last pounds. If you aren't eating much they like to hang on.

Hello, I am so glad I found this site. My local support group meets twice per month but the money for gas is a burden. I am going once per month because its good support for me. Does anyone here feel sad that eating is not fun, no pleasure, its weird to say this because eating was a comfort for me when I was obese. Do I sound down, sorry just having a hard couple of days.
Some doctors are using a set-pont model. Check this out:
