I thought I was eating like a pig... But my doctor said I'm not eating enough and I'm losing weight way too fast...

It only concerns me because what if when I'm done losing weight, I can't stop.

I didn't worry about too many things prior to surgery but losing too much weight was a concern of mine. I'm getting close to my goal and wondered what I am going to do different in order to stop losing. I'm never hungry, I eat because I'm suppose to and I eat until I'm full.... I have not tried anything really but meat...a little veggies and a little fruit.

I know they say our hunger and cravings will eventually kick back in. I think I read between 6 months to a year...does that sound right?

I'm actually setting at docs office right now for a check up...im gonna ask what approach I take to stop losing and when the heck I can have a glass of wine...lol. at this point, I would settle for a thimble full.

Dang! Lol .. oh well... I'll ask in November... I don't want to email her about it because I don't want her to think it's serious enough to where I'm eating it all the time... But sometimes my sister makes it, and it smells sooooo good

In two days we'll be 3 months Post-Op or starting off our 14th week...

I feel great, healthier, lighter, my hair has begun to fall off, but I'm in the lucky group that has extremely thick hair and I have A LOT. Although I notice it, no one else does. So that's another thing I am extremely grateful for.

I'm doing everything I'm supposed to do. I am now able to take my chewable vitamins without getting sick. My Protein is perfect, but my food intake needs work. Because I feel full all day, I thought I was over eating, but I need improvement. Doctor wants me to eat more. It's just hard because well... I don't want to eat! Lol.

Anyway, I am still as grateful as I was the day of surgery. Some people don't have insurance like me. I'm humbled and happy. I'm a very happier person.

Things I have noticed that bugs me a little... People are MUCH nicer to a thinner person. I still have 30 more pounds to lose, but it's terrible knowing that some people wouldn't talk to me before because I was big. Now, everyone is extremely nice. Smh

Still the same, I'm a happier person.

I was last patient. Office was closing but nurse practitioner was going to call me back with the answer but I was in Kohl's shopping when she called and could not get good enough reception to answer the phone. So apparently we weren't supposed to know the answer to that popcorn question today

Part of me agrees that people are nicer to thinner people, but then I wonder if I'm just not putting off the same Vibe as I was when I was heavy.... maybe I'm coming across more approachable more confident more willing to talk to strangers, I don't know.

I just spoke to nurse practitioner and ask her if at 3 months after having RNY I could eat raisins, nuts, sunflower seeds and popcorn and her answer was yes, none of that will harm anything.... but it's possible you won't tolerate it but it's not going to hurt. And even if you don't tolerate it well right now it doesn't mean that later in life you won't be able to

Fyi- had my first drink of alcohol last night (3 months RNY post-op) red dry wine. Before surgery I was a wino lol.

You know, it was a little disappointing.... I was expecting it to hit the spot and more. But to be honest I'm glad it didn't I don't need those extra calories

I'm not much of a drinker of any kind of alcohol. When I did drink, it was only to get a buzz. Did you get a buzz? I hear we get buzzed really fast.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
