Strange things going on......

Ok, last time I saw my surgeon (probably 2 months ago), he told me, in no uncertain terms, that I cannot lose another pound and I should really start eating more at this stage.  I had my surgery 4/30/07 and I am 6'1 and went from 345 lbs. to 165 lbs.  I told him that I have stayed at 165 for months and haven't lost anything, so there was nothing for him to worry about.

So over the holidays, I was bad (in my mind) and ate more then I should have and had wine for the first time since my surgery.  Well, since Christmas to now, I have lost another 3 lbs.

Anyone else have this issue?  I am wondering if it is something I should be worrying about.

Congrasts on the successful weight loss and keeping it off. I wouldn't worry too much about the 3-lb. loss... but I wouldn't increase your eating. Just continue to make healthy food choices and get your protein everyday. If you continue to lose then maybe increase your healthy carbs just a bit more. Eat more whole grain breads. But don't get started on this unless you absolutely have to... cause once you start you won't want to stop. And make sure you do some muscle building exercises to keep up your strength and build more muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat and might increase your weight a bit more. Hope this helps! Good luck!
