I eat maybe 1/4 of what i ate and im not losing weight. I lost 15 lbs, thats it. True, i was 182 lbs, im now 167, my body has changed for the better as i hve lost inches. But i need the scale to go down. 167 cannot b my ideal weight, the chart says 140 being 5'3", even at 150 i will b happy n my health problems will subside. I walk my dogs everyday. But not rigid exercise yet, do not hve the energy! Tired w so little food. Help. Sent from my SM-N900T using the BariatricPal App

Order an appetizer as the meal. Soup is good too. Even an entree and take most of it home. My son will always eat my leftovers. I hve told a few ppl at work. Since the doctor found a huge hernia n removed it, i say that i hve stomach problems and cannot eat most stuff anymore for now. Sent from my SM-N900T using the BariatricPal App

Low BMI Gastric Sleeve story
Ley replied to lady10000000000's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
My surgery was 4/25 Sent from my SM-N900T using the BariatricPal App -
5 weeks post op. Starting weight was185 lbs. I'm 5'3", 65, and had problems w asthma attacks, sleep apnea, acid reflux, etc. Thats why i went thru the procedure. Expensive for just 50 lbs. Already lost 16 lbs. My surgery went very well, surgeon also found a hernia & removed it. For 3 weeks just liquids, then puree, then softfoods. I was very weak last week incl Saturday; almost fainted at the Nail Salon. This week i seem to b a lot better. Increased food intake. Now im trying to let Protein in my system. I love carbs, miss them tremendously, specially rice. (Latino upbringing, rice n Beans being the main course, animal products just a side dish). I drink a lot of liquid yogurt, liquid Coco Protein, etc. My only concern is that my upper abdomen is bulged. Contents take a long time to go down. Also miss Water w my meals. I need suggestions on nonbulging foods that taste good. Tired of Soups, liquid yogurt. I need food. Any help would b appreciated. Thank you. L Sent from my SM-N900T using the BariatricPal App
