I started my journey at 368 pounds on the day of surgery I weighed 345 pounds, I am just two months out of surgery and I weighed 265 this morning. I am nauseated constantly and have a very limited diet. On the majority of the days I hit or get really close to my Protein goals and always hit my Water goal. I am exhausted, napping during the day and going to bed earlier and earlier every night. If I try even the lightest of physical activity, after only a minute or two I get light headed and dizzy. I saw my surgeon two weeks ago and spoke with him and he did not seem to concerned. I have lost another 20 pounds since that appointment. Surgeon did order an upper GI scan and a new set of blood work to check things out. I am just getting really concerned with the rate and the amount of weight that I am losing. I understand the nausea is just part of this and try and work through it but the lack of energy also has me very concerned. Any Ideas or similar situations out there? Thanks Captain

I am not exactly sure why you think I obviously know that I should be eating more. I am eating exactly what I've been instructed. Also at my last appointments my surgeon and GP both agreed that I am doing fine with what I am eating. Captain

So my typical day consist of Protein shake in the morning made with GNC Protein powder and HEB Mootopia about 32 grams of protein, lunch time I've been eating a Protein Bar 10 to 20 grams of protein mattering what I can handle and at night I eat a Greek Yogurt with 15 grams of protein. Surgeon wants me eating 60 grams of protein so I am there. Real food does not always go down real easy. I have tried a lot and chicken and shrimp do not work. Taco meat is the best that I found I'll eat that with refried Beans and a little queso and I am good to go, but that is like once or twice a week. I have not got the results back form either of the test yet so I do not know. I have also seem my GP who was on the border of being concerned i guess. He was going to look at the test results and let me know his opinion. I really trust my GP but I am a little on the fence about the surgeon at this time. I am taking no Medication at this time. Thanks Captain
