I an a OB/GYN Nurse Practitioner and you really need to go see your GYN provider. It could be just that your estrogen levels are changed after the weight loss but it could be your thyroid. It could be that your uterine lining is building up and not being shed. It could even be a pituitary tumor! Go get it checked out! You should have blood work and a pelvic ultrasound done as well as a physical exam.
Topic: RE: one pound below chart weight
Good job!
I got down from a size 28 to a size 8 and am holding here--it takes extra carbs and snacks for me to not lose anymore, which is really cool! The BMI chart says I am still overweight at 26.4 pounds and I say phooie on the chart I like it right here!
Topic: RE: HELP!!! Probelms with blood pressure and blood sugar!!!
As far as the dumping goes, I have that problem with different types of foods. Not just sugary foods. Fried foods, dairy, and of all things tortilla chips. I just avoid it.
My BP was very high before surgery, but I have been off medication for 8 months now. I do take a diruertic for fluid retention in my legs and that causes me to have bouts of low blood pressure.
I had a bad few weeks back in May like you are having, but my body seems to have adjusted. Give it time

Topic: one pound below chart weight
144 pounds gone.
I am now one pound below what the charts say i should weigh. I started out at 277 and now weigh 133 pounds. I am adding carbs back in for snacks and trying to drink protein drinks at least three times a week. I also hope to stop loosing soon. I have went from a 32 size to a 6-8 size. I cannot believe it. I too see the fat girl that i was. I think it takes time to realize that the person in the mirror is US!!!!!!!!!!!
Hang in there everone.

Hi,
I too have had the same problem for several months 
I am going to my GYN in two weeks and will present the problem to him and let you know what he says. I had it twice in December two. 
I will update after my appointment and let you know what he says.

Hi;
I have had the dumping spells; when I over eat; eat something with to much sugar; eat to fast; or eat something deep fried (fish-n-chips) even KFC causes me to dump. I tried to eat one of my kids french fries the other day and whamy.. dump city here I come.
seems each one of us have something different that causes the dumping; and we need to figure it out.
My b/p is just the opposite; to high; and it won't come down; so they are trying different types of meds. I was on 14 different pills every night pre-op; and now have to take 3 just for b/p. ARGH....
good luck

Kristy - I have not had to see the Dr. for any problems, however, I do get dumping syndrome if I overeat - even when sugar is not involved. For me, it could be just a couple of extra bites too many. I have to keep reminding myself to slow down and STOP when I'm full and not when the food is gone!! I hope this helps!
