shelleys goal

My general dr said I am dehydrated, starved, anemic (mildly) and had high ketones level. But when I saw my dietician who works for my surgeon, she said I'm doing fine and just make sure to drink enough Water and eat 5-6 small meals. Before this I was eating like 4 very small meals. She advised me to eat a few carbs and not to totally exclude them. I really liked my weight loss being every other day. Does anyone have any input on this or why two healthcare people wouldn't agree?

I agree with all prior comments..I've lost 125 lbs since July 13, 2016. I drink nothing carbonated. I did try a sip at Christmas. It hurt and made me feel weird. Do crystal light. Forget soda if you can. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you sooo much!!!!

Hi ALL:) I am 9 months out and have lost 99 lbs!!! My question is I have hit a stall at 177 lbs. (down from 275). I'm looking at what I'm eating and wondering if I may be eating too many carbs. For example, I do eat a couple handfuls of pretzels like every other day, and sometimes a piece of toast. Mainly though my diet consists of veggies and fruit, string cheese, and deli slices, greek yogurt, light Soups. Any ideas? Have a great day!!!

low fat buttermilk is a wonderful source of protein and they sell it in the little pints now. Some people don't like the taste of it but I do.

My apetite is back some and now I feel like I did this in vain Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using the BariatricPal App

I haven't had a apetite since my surgery last July but now I am having some hunger..it scares me cuz I'm eating healthy food Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using the BariatricPal App

The surgeon and team I had said no more alcohol ever. I'm 7 months out no alcohol at all and don't plan on starting. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using the BariatricPal App

I've heard the opposite actually..I had the bypass and have almost no hunger. My Sw last july was 276. My current weight is 189. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using the BariatricPal App

Sw:275 Cw: 185 I'm eating very healthy foods..no carbonation, no alcohol, veggies, minimal meat. Im.not losing weight nearly at the rate I was. I do have a larger apetite but it's still pretty small. My question is if I go to absolutely no carbs do you think I could lost it faster? Is it normal for weight loss to be slower at 7 months?? Thanks for your responses!!

Thanks for your reply! That's good advice! You're doing great too! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using the BariatricPal App

Help! I ate some lays potato chips and I noticed I was able to eat more than a few and it scared me.. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using the BariatricPal App

I have anxiety and bipolar 2. I wasn't cleared right away bc my psychiatrist didn't have a history of working with bariatric patients. However he wrote a letter to them and I was cleared. The previous person's reply was possibly true that the weight could be a huge percent of the depression. I've lost almost 80 since my surgery in july and have cut back on meds. I'm sure you'll do great!!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using the BariatricPal App
