Question:
Can't lose anymore weight...Need advice

On May 29th, I'll be 1 year post-op from my gastric bypass. I used to weigh 250lbs and am now down to 130-131. I can't seem to anymore weight. I'm still following the post-op diet because I'm too scared to come off of it fearing that I may gain all my weight back. Help! How can I lose some more weight. I only need to lose about 10 more. Thanks!    — Nina15137 (posted on May 10, 2010)

A good, intense boot camp style workout may shock your body into losing weight. It would be a good idea to talk to the personal trainer associated with your surgeon's practice, if there's one available. I'm almost 11 months out and I'm facing a similar issue. Good luck!

is it possible that you are at the weight you are supposed to be?? i dont know how tall you are, but at 5ft 3 i am aiming for about 135 and that's a good weight for me.

Wow! 120 pounds in one year! Huge congratulations! First, how tall are you? Is it possible that you just think you need to loose another 10 pounds? Sometimes, after we have been very heavy, it's hard not to see ourselves that way. 130 is a low weight and might be here you need to be. Give your body a little time to adjust. Best of luck!

Thank you. I'm only 4'11". God only knows how much this loose skin ends up to be with total weight and all but, I'm still considered overweight for my height.
