Surgeon wants me to slow it down!
I'm 10 pounds from my goal (130) and went for my 6 month appointment today. The doc was almost shocked by how fast my weight has come off. He told me to add more calories and now try to find that balance for maintenance. His goal for me is 130. I would really like to be 125, but now at 140 pounds, he wants me to slow it down! Kind of disappointed that he acted so surprised and wants me to up my calories NOW (before I'm even to my goal weight).
The good news? I'm in a size 4!! Whoo hoo!!! From a tight 22 to a size 4 - I have no complaints.
Surgeon said I can start shopping for plastic surgeons now so once I'm a year out I can schedule proceedure! (having tummy tuck and boob job - it's a must-do for me, I just can't live without that "icing on my cake")
Best to all of you on your 6 month appointments!!

Congrats on your loss. I can't wait to be there with ya in the 130-140's. You must be really ecstatic to be so close to goal at your 6 months mark. Anywho, good luck and continued success.
My goal 135; current 132; pre-op highest 285; I have lost more than I weigh... I my RNY!

My doctor was shocked at how much weight I have lost also. down to 115 which is lower than he would like I am only 5ft so i am still in my ideal weight range but he would like me to put on 5lbs. which i am okay with but am having a hard time increasing my calories. My surgeon and program suggest waiting 2 years before having plastic surgery but we are saving for a least a boob job if not a tummy tuck also.
