How much is too much?

[dmedic72 130]

I'm 6 weeks post VSG and down 30lbs (80lb since the beginning of the year). I'm currently weighing about 215 lbs and am wearing waist size 30 to 32. I know I've lost a lot of muscle which I worked very hard to build before surgery. I was prepared for this. I think I need to slow down the weight loss. I am diligent about Protein intake, BCAAs, and nutrition. I'm on TRT, HCG and Clomid. I work with a personal trainer on strength training.

Has any other guy on here dealt with this so soon after surgery? If so, how did you handle it?

I never imagined wearing anything less than a 32 waist. I'm not complaining or gloating. I'm genuinely concerned about becoming too thin.

I feel great and have lots of energy. I have no regrets.

What is BCAA, and TRT.

It sounds like you are doing all the right things to me. How tall are you and what's your goal weight? I'm actually pretty similar and have the same concern. I wasn't the heaviest of sleeve pts. My HW was 276, my SW was 257, and my current weight is 232, about 4 1/2 weeks post op. I can tell I've lost some muscle. I'm still on lifting restrictions for another 2 weeks, so no gym for me.

I'm 5'9". I think my personal goal weight goal (regardless of BMI charts) is 200 lbs.
