  7. I eat maybe 1/4 of what i ate and im not losing weight. I lost 15 lbs, thats it. True, i was 182 lbs, im now 167, my body has changed for the better as i hve lost inches. But i need the scale to go down. 167 cannot b my ideal weight, the chart says 140 being 5'3", even at 150 i will b happy n my health problems will subside. I walk my dogs everyday. But not rigid exercise yet, do not hve the energy! Tired w so little food. Help. Sent from my SM-N900T using the BariatricPal App

  19. 5 weeks post op. Starting weight was185 lbs. I'm 5'3", 65, and had problems w asthma attacks, sleep apnea, acid reflux, etc. Thats why i went thru the procedure. Expensive for just 50 lbs. Already lost 16 lbs. My surgery went very well, surgeon also found a hernia & removed it. For 3 weeks just liquids, then puree, then softfoods. I was very weak last week incl Saturday; almost fainted at the Nail Salon. This week i seem to b a lot better. Increased food intake. Now im trying to let Protein in my system. I love carbs, miss them tremendously, specially rice. (Latino upbringing, rice n Beans being the main course, animal products just a side dish). I drink a lot of liquid yogurt, liquid Coco Protein, etc. My only concern is that my upper abdomen is bulged. Contents take a long time to go down. Also miss Water w my meals. I need suggestions on nonbulging foods that taste good. Tired of Soups, liquid yogurt. I need food. Any help would b appreciated. Thank you. L Sent from my SM-N900T using the BariatricPal App
