The three of us all get asked this question: "Can I lose too much weight after surgery?" Can you eat too few calories? True, it’s not as common as slow weight loss or weight regain after surgery but it happens. So how low is low when it comes to weight and how do you stop the drop?

In this episode we answer the questions:

• Can I lose too much weight after surgery?
• Can I eat too few calories?
• How do you stop the drop when you don't want to lose any more weight?
• Can you drink too much fluid?
• How many carb grams should you eat? Are carbs off limits?
• Do you have brain fog?
• What about reflux and other gastrointestinal issues that make it hard to eat?
• What should my weight goal be?
• When should I see my dietitian again?
