Going down...

[sweettea 300]

My goal was 140 pounds. I am now 121 pounds. Enough already. Doctor says I'm fine. I'm worried. You should see my ribs and hip bones. I wear a size 7 junior and size 2 women's. I weigh 7 pounds less than high school weight.

@@SWEETTEA Congrats on your loss. If you are concerned about losing too much - you could try upping your calorie intake (slowly so you can see where you'd be to maintain). I'm still pre-surgery but I get where you are coming from with not wanting to lose too much.

[Sophie74656 1,572]

these threads always are strange to me. After being significantly overwight my whole life my brain cannot process the concept of loosing too much weight or being too skinny

I know it's strange to come on a WLS site and complain about losing to much, but it's all part of it. Unfortunately, it seems I'm only getting 600-800 calories a day. This is including Protein Drinks, which I can't get the whole thing down. I'm only able to eat tiny portions before throwing up. All I want to do is maintain, NOT lose anymore.

As I said Doctor says I'm fine. I've had an endoscopy.

wow, what do you think is causing the throwing up?

[sweettea 300]

I swear it depend on how much I eat if I throw up.

[sweettea 300]

I'm not hungry. I try to eat multiple times a day. I've lost interest is most carbs. Most of them hurt my stomach (Breads, rices, potatoes). Sweets don't really appeal to me. All except my altoids, which I'm addicted to lately.

Mine either! Whenever I read a post like this it gives me hope that I actually can be a thin person, not just a less fat person LOL

Sweet tea.... I know you are in the sleeve forums, but just wanted to check....you had a sleeve, not RNY? What was your starting weight or BMI, if you don't mind my asking?

Just wondering bc I am losing sleep trying to decide between the sleeve and RNY....

Thanks!
