    I ate exactly what my doctor told me to eat, I did not stray away. I still today only drink Water I may drink unsweetened tea, not often. I just don’t want to lose any more weight

    I can deal with the sagging of the skin, I just want it to stop😭.. I thought it would be in slow motion by now, well that’s not the case.. I’m in the process of trying to gain muscle, hopefully that will help my mind .. thanks

    I started off 237pounds at 5’6 (9/23/17) as of (7/19/18) I’m at 144pounds. Some may think this is great but I have literally started eating everything because I want the weight loss to stop. My butt,thighs and boobs sags like old socks. #idontknowwhattodo

    Not sure what to say about the sagging as I am experiencing this already, too. I started taking a collagen supplement a couple of days ago to see if that would help. About a month ago, I got serious about using cereve body lotion mixed with argan oil every day and I have to say my saggy body parts look nourished!
    Good for you for working on building muscles -- I started weight lifting myself almost 2 months ago and I am so happy with my added strength and muscles!
    Your starting stats are similar to mine -- I hope/pray I can hit 144, sags be damned! Can I ask how much you ate during the weight loss phase?

    Just understand that, larger muscles require more energy than small ones... so they will consume more calories. But seriously, if you think your weight loss is problematic, you should be talking to your doctors.

    Well, for 144 lbs at 5 foot 6, your BMI is 23.2. The high end of "normal". So, you aren't actually "too small" that's just your view of yourself compared to what you are used to. As far as stuff sagging... well, that's because you were "ObeseClass II" "Severely Obese" with a BMI of 38.3.

    Talk to your doctors about it. But you are by far not medically "too small" or underweight. It's unwise to just start eating everything just because. Discuss your situation with your doctors... They were there before the surgery, they were there for the surgery, they are still there for you after your surgery. If your issue is with sagging skin... you should have been well aware of this side effect going into surgery. It happens, it's part of the process.
