I am 130lbs now and considered to be "malnourished".  I have been having a large amount of medical problems (THAT HAVE NOT BEEN LINKED TO MY 100lb WEIGHT LOSS or SURGERY)  I am taking vitamins like crazy with vitamin B12 injections about 2 times a month until the medical signs of low B12 are gone.  As mentioned before by ME in my own confession in the Ontario forum that I have not followed the proper diet during my weight loss journey and have not really increased my activity except for a bit more walking.  I have had a weird shaking problem which looks like a seizure but I remain totally conscious and I am able to communicate appropriately.  My blood sugar has been falling fairly low in the last 5 months with my only warning being a numb on the tip of my tongue and lips, then I start shaking, get dizzy.  Anyway, it has been a bit of a bumpy road  but I am being tested and scanned and retested for a lot of things.  Good thing is I don't have a huge brain tumour wuhich is what they thought was originally causing me to have the seizure like activity.  Life is a one day at a time thing fo me and the ones I love but I am happy to be here and be alive.  May sound cheesy but it is how I am feeling lately.  Time for bed before I ramble even more than I already am.  

Good luck to all of you that are in any part of this journey.

Laurie
