It took 324 days to lose 96 pounds. My surgeon (possible the worst gastric surgeon on the face of this earth) gave me a totally unrealistic goal weight of 110 pounds. At the time I tough he had used some kind of medical formula to come up with this number. I thought ok at 110 pounds I will have a healthy weight and a good BMI.
So now 324 days later I weighed in this morning and I was 109 pounds. I calculated my BMI and it's 17.      18.5 is under weight and unhealthy. Not to mention I look like hell this skinny.
I should not be surprised that once again this dr has failed in his wls program. He just pulled that number out of his butt. Why would you tell someone a number and not research the fact that this number puts me in an unhealthy category? Thanks again for screwing with my head some more.
