I feel dizzy a lot of the times now and I have no energy. I take Vitamins and try to eat at least 3 times a day. I was 218 pounds and now I'm 125 pounds. The doctor said I should of stopped loosing weight and lost 10 more pounds since he told me that. I don't have energy to exercise. I don't want to loose anymore weight. I've been to the hospital and they couldn't come up with anything. I fear if I keep loosing weight I will look sickly. I feel sick. When I eat something other then Soup my stomach hurts. I always feel nauseous after eating. Any suggestions?

@@return2slender You need to determine why you feel sick after eating. That's the first step - because in order to stop losing - you need to eat more / increase calories. Eat more often during the day - 3 times is minimal especially if you can't eat much at all or only eating Soup. Have they done any bloodwork to make sure your Vitamin levels are good?

Stay on your stomach pill. Eat small meals/snacks every 3 hours! Drink shakes

Thank you for your suggestions. My bloodwork was done and everything came out normal. I bought nuts,veggies,and cheese. I snack on that through the day. The doctor suggested I stick to only 3 meals a day and avoid snacking but I find that since I can't eat enough in one setting breaking small meals up and snacking on healthy small amounts is the only way I can get enough nutrients. It's been tough. I have not been able to attend any support groups either. Thank you.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
