Topic: RE: Yeh still losing
How tall are you Suzanne? Is you BMI o.k.? Sometimes I think people who know you, feel you are too thin but if you look around, you may see many others who are as thin and they look o.k. because now one saw them or knew them when they were overweight. Depends on bone structure, height and how you feel I guess. What does you surgeon say? Julia

Congratulations on all of y'alls success!!!!! Topic: RE: Yeh still losing
Me? I can't seem to quit losing! I am starting to get a bit worried about it as my family and friends have all commented that I am getting frightfully thin after this last 10-lbs went. I have lost a total of 190-lbs (gone from 324 to now 134) since surgery...I think I look great but I get worried comments all the time. What would y'all do in my case? Worry about it or just "go with it" ?

Brenda, my nut told me that I need 1200 to 1500 calories a day. No more than 60 to 70 carbs, (of any kind) and at least 70 to 100 protein. With your exercising, this should work for you.
Try keeping a journal for a couple of weeks and see if this helps. Make sure you are getting your water in too. You may not be getting enough calories in.
I have a plateau buster if you would like me to send it to you.
Good luck and hang in there girl, You can do it.

Same here. So I met with my nut and I was eating too many calories - around 1600 per day. I had no clue I was eating this much but was eating "melting carbs". That's what we call chips, crackers, etc. any carb that is crunchy and basically dissolves in your mouth. They are so good but are basically empty cals per my nut. So, she put me back on 1000 cal/day and added 2 protein supplements again (need to be included in my 1000).
I've started weights about a month ago too and have lost 10 pounds the past month. I did not lose anything in the 2 months prior.
Hope this helps. Good luck and hang in there. You CAN do it.
