I did good yesterday and my scale was back down this morning where I felt much better, but now I need to stick with it so it does not go back up. I am so afraid of the bounceback and am wondering if I did not go low enough to have enough room for it.

I'm one of those foolish people who increased my calories thinking I should be on mainteanance and now it is back firing on me.
I think you have learned from the WW cakes that we have to pay for our mistakes and now you are going to do just fine.
Great Menu!

I'm not sure I understand the bounce back yet. If when we stop the malabsorption and we continue eating the way we did when we malabsorbed will we then start gaining or just stop losing and maintain?
I increased my exercise some to try and offset some of this, but since I let some of my bad habits and bad foods back into my life it has been a little harder to stay away from them if they are around.
I'm sure I eat more calories now than I did a year ago. I have not been very good to track mine lately. I should probably take a day or two and really track everything that goes in my mouth and also do the weighing and measuring. I know when we eyeball things we probably get more than we really think we are getting. I'll have to find my little calorie counter thing that I used to use.
Now to just stick to the menu for the entire day!!
I'm going to try keeping track every day and try to stay within the percentages that I have set for myself and see if I can drop down to the next 3 lb. range. My goal isn't to get down to my low weight or even close to it. I just would like to figure out how to maintain my weight in the middle of my Normal BMI range.
