How to stop loosing?

[LilBoo007 491]

So I went to my surgeon for my 9 month follow up and he told me do not loose anymore weight at all no ifs an or buts!!! I was at my goal weight of 120! Now a bit over 2 weeks and I'm steady dropping, like a pound a day!! I've increase my food like he suggested and even added 2-3 servings of fruit a day and it is just steady dropping! I'm down almost 10lbs in 2 weeks!! And I don't know what to do! Any body been through this once they reached goal and if so how do you make it stop???

My friend went through that with the sleeve. Her thyroid was the issue. Have your doctor check your thyroid. Tsh, etc.

I will look into that! The two times I had it checked it was normal but you never know! One thing I just thought about is my neurologist just changed one of my Migraine meds to topamax and one common side effect is weight loss... I really hope that's not the cause! I'm finally migraine free after 6 years!!

Did it ever stop? Your weightloss? I'm curious because I was told the same thing this week and in stressing!

Add Protein Drinks or healthy higher calorie beverages. Also higher calorie Protein. That was the recommendation given to me and it worked. fruit isn't adding any significant calories to level you off.

It is the topamax!! I was on it for Migraines the the bariatric dr increased it to help with weight loss. When I cut my dose back, the weightloss slowed down. You can always eat more carbs, but you may want to see if your topamax is too high. I was taking 50mg once a day to control migraines. When it went up to twice a day, the weight started falling off. Start there with your dosage.
