So I went for my 6 month checkup the other day.  Not too bad, 120 lbs down and minimal vitamin deficiency issues (that darn B12, can seem to supp enough!).  My MD projected my end weight at 135 lbs if I don't "screw it up" as he put it.  LOL, he sounds negative but that's just Dr. K's way of making you want to prove him wrong.  He said he would actually prefer me to get down to 125 lbs so that I have room to gain 10 or so pounds a few years down the road as I've heard most of us do.  He loves to give the speech of "You're doing okay but..such and such...is where I want you to be."  But the RD at his office says she thinks that's high praise from him and that I'm doing well.  In 3 more pounds I will be the lowest I have ever weighed as an adult.  Woo-hoo, bring it on baby, eye of the tiger and crap, I ain't scared!

I see you took my advice with the avatar!  You're also doing extremely well with your WLS.  Good for you.  Your eye of the tiger seems to be working!!
