Losing to much weight to fast

[pdallariva 57]

I am now currently 9 months out and I am losing to much weight to fast. I am having a hard time keeping solids down. Almost everything I eat comes back up. I am going to see a GI specialist who is familiar with the Pace Maker for the stomach. Has anyone else had this problem?

I have not experienced this. I had RNY gastric bypass surgery around 4 years ago and my weight loss leveled off naturally at around 7 months. I noticed that it was difficult to consume solids such as steak and chicken so I relied on softer foods such as high Protein chili and Soups. The fact that you are vomiting regularly may point to an abnormality.

So let a specialist see if they can find a cause. And remember that you need to ensure that you are consuming an adequate amount of protein (protein shakes), during the interim until you can localize the cause.

Hello

Hope you doing better. I also lost a lot of weight and now 1 pound underweight. I just had my 5th bowel obstruction surgury last week. I am so upset. I was also not able to keep food down. They need to make sure you don't have any obstruction. They most likely will have you do a special test where you drink dye and they able to see if you have any issues. I hope all works out. Please keep me posted. R you on full liquids?
