Anyone Have This Happen...what to do now?

1 year out.I am to down to 114.5lbs (5'tall a little bony and 69 years young) ).... I look and feel great, however (I think)

Seems I am losing too rapidly all of a sudden.

We have relocated to a new city without bariatric support.

When eating I can only hold so much ( small egg or walnut size pouch)...

Many thanks!

I am not all familiar with bypass surgeries, but maybe try drinking your calories! Assuming...Doesn't seem like you're getting enough nutrients. Maybe blend a bunch of leafy greens and apples, etc and drink them. Drink some Protein Drinks too. Hope you find something that works! Glad you look and feel great too. :)

Continuing bariatric support is important. If you can't see a bariatric group, at the very least be vigilant about your PCP visits, make sure there is no other underlying cause to explain your weight loss.

You are awesome! Thanks again...

Me too! I’m 9 months post bypass and have lost 150 pounds. I’m 5’10 and started at 300. I cannot eat more than a tiny portion and denser foods like chicken, bread, Pasta, or other meats will not stay down. I had that balloon procedure to widen my intestine from 9mm to 12mm two weeks ago but it feels the same size.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
