Anyone else been told they have lost to fast

My dr. said he wanted me to be at 150 pounds at the 1 yr mark... Well i am only 9 months out and struggling to stay any where from 150-152... I feel i could loose a little more however my dr. said I have lost it too fast.. I have yet to plateu for more then 2 weeks at a time and when i come off a plateu i loose like 3-5 pounds that week... I am now eating 7 times a day.... 3 meals and 4 snacks... My Dr's are worried about my health.. They say everything looks fine however they feel i dont eat as much as i say i do.. Due to the fact i get light headed, and dizzy spells daily... Anyone else running in to this problem.. I am down from 289 to as of this am 150.5 I'm here for any advise MariAnna

Marianna, I have the same problem and I eat plenty. The dizzyness I have been told by my doctor comes from lack of water (dehydration). So, drink plenty of water. I also started out at 290 and I am now at 152 and February 19 will be 9 months for me. My surgery was on May 19, 2003. Let me know if this helps. http://hometown.aol.com/lawlady33073/page1.html Kristi Parrish Fayetteville, Georgia

HI Ladies, this is my first post on this board. NIce to meet you. I had my surgery on May 28. I have lost 115 lbs. and now am at 155. My surgeron also told me I would get down to 150 by my one year. What is with the 150lbs? I am only 5-2 ins. tall and all the charts say I should weigh alot less than that. Do you know how the Drs. determine what you will end up weighing? I am sure the extra skin I now have weighs extra on me too. But that will have to stay for awhile longer. I am not ready for another surgery. I do have a problem drinking all the water I should. It seems that the water just does not agree with me. Even though I have no problem with food. Hugs to all you thinner folks!! LOL

I'm wondering a few things here ... How much were you each bypassed? (I was bypassed only 75 cm - wish he'd done a little more, as I'm terrified of gaining back my weight later on) And how tall are you? My doctor wanted me at 148 ... he musta heard you all were 150 and wanted to 'one up your dr.' ... *LOL* I don't know. But I am 5'10" tall! I know I have that much to lose. I'm at 163 right now and could easily lose that last several pounds. (Like one of you mentioned ... if I had my tummy done, I'd probably 'be there' as far as weight!! but alas, unless my fairy godmother shows up here soon, I'm not going to be able to do anything in the reconstruction area!) Has your weight loss slowed at all? Are you eating more now than before?
