Right now I'm about 17 pounds away from my goal weight and the weight loss has picked up in the last 2 weeks or so.  My question is were any of you worried about not being able to stop losing once you got to your goal?  I'm doing pretty good protein wise but I still have trouble getting in more than 800 calories or so.  Any suggestions for maintaining my goal weight and stopping the weight loss when I hit my goal?   Never thought I'd be worried about losing too much weight.  I guess its a good problem to have.

Surgery date: 2/4/15

Highest weight: 315. Pre-op diet weight: 289.  Surgery weight: 260.  Current weight: 138  Goal weight: 160

I have worried a bit. And truthfully I am 15 pounds below my goal. But the vets tell me that's good because regain will rear its ugly head and I have a cushion. And now it really has settled right here where my body wants I suppose.

let your body decide where it wants to be. don't worry, you won't waste away! and when the malabsorption slows, you'll be grateful for the leeway.

I am way below my original goal of 160#. I was trying for a size 12. I am now a size 2-4 125# 

The weight loss will taper off on its own as you get smaller and have more capacity and food diversity.
