what makes someone looks unhealthy after WLS?



Recommended Posts

Besides my actual health this was a huge issue to my family prior to surgery. Of course they saw me several times at my unhealthiest weight of 100lbs with the band.. So I don't blame them. I set my goal at a high 130lbs and the red line cut off at 125lbs. I've been hovering at 127 for along time. Sadly, I keep wanting to lose more because I don't like my thighs. My PS told me NO MORE WEIGHTLOSS ... Weightloss isn't going to help the spots I'm unhappy with. Losing more weight would be an unhealthy thing to do. So be it. I am healthy and thats my main goal.

Basic reasons for looking unhealthy is diet and losing too much. Excercise is definitely a bonus for the extra glow.. But some of us can't (naturally) do much about the south pole pull ;)

I wonder the same thing. I am pre-surgery- scheduled to go in on September 17!!! I weigh 213 and I am 5'4.. Pre-diabetic and sleep apnea.

I worry that I will look sickly- I don't want to look pointy- alot of people seem to look pointy to me. You know what I mean? I want to be somewhere between thin and curvy. Not pointy. I also don't want to be bald hahaha. These are my fears. I am 50 years old. And ready for this- I am so tired I can't tell you. I also need a kick in the ass. And I know this is going to be one for me.
