Low BMI - any out there!
Outlawa1 replied to weight_off_my_horses_back's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I agree - my BMI was 33, and my only health problem was with my knees, but I knew that if I kept it up and didn't get the weight off, worse things were coming. I lost 11lb preop and have lost 19lb in the 5 weeks since. (30lb since 2/1). One issue: with a lower BMI, you may have some good habits already - I already had a good schedule at the gym and was "fit but fat." I couldn't work out for a month while healing from surgery and really felt it - walking isn't the same as a good workout for me. I started back to the gym sort of early, but am still working back up to my fitness level preservers. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

How long did you have to take prophylactic antibiotics after your surgery? Mine are making me SO sick. -
