Under my goal weight :angry:

TTL

there are threads on the board concerning people losing more weight than they want to, going the other way like it sounds you are

your goal was 135, but you weigh 120 lbs??

you obviously need to eat more :blink:

how is your tummy treating you???

are you having trouble eating enough???

do you vomit??? :wacko:

are you afraid to eat more, because you are afraid you will gain weight??? :wacko:

if the tummy is good, no other problems then............

just snack more in between meals (not going overboard of course)

up your calories at meals

still keep track, make sure whats going on

people some times do say stuff like "oh you are skinny, you must eat" and you really look fine

this has been discussed before

do you feel bad???

sometimes are image of ourselves in the mirror isn't what we really look like :wacko:

there is a word for that - can't remember :angry:

i mean we can look at our bodies and still say we look fat, yet we've just lost ie 100 lbs

works both ways - you could be a perfect weight - you just see yourself too skinny cuz of what others have said

sorry don't know the answer in regards to what you are thinking :(

but repeating if you really are too small for your body frame - you must eat more

talk to your doc too

take care ;)

good luck

Thanks Kathy ok my tummy is fine i dont vomit i probably do need to eat more small meals during the day my nutritionist says i look great and i am right where i should be for my height last i spoke with her. I guess its just me taking it out on myself... words hurt sometimes! I have been so happy!! I guess part of me cares about what others are saying. Your Words help me alot so thank you so much have a great day kathy :-)

I am 20 months out and got some of the same feedback even though I was a healthy weight. Make Protein the priority...not every other day...but everyday and exercise. Build muscle! A toned shape is never boney.

You are so right Stacey i think i am definitey going to have to make myself drink more protien that is probably alot of my problem i did slack off it some.. i was working out like crazy then i kind of stopped some to. I will try these things... I do have a question though when you did these things did you gain muscle,? cause i do think i have lost some and i need to regain some.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
