I wouldn't try to gain any weight, since eventually your body will settle down, and may go up a bit on its own. Your BMI is still within the healthy range. Maybe, just keep increasing your calories as you have been doing. Have you been able to talk with a dietitian?

At some future point, some of the gauntness that you may be feeling right now, will level out, as your weight redistributes itself. I remember reading this early out and didn't quite understand it, but I am about 18.5 months out and have been noticing less bony areas and things have filled out. I have been building muscle, so that helps, but some of the other changes are probably redistribution of whatever fat was left on my body. Rapid weight loss is a real shock to our bodies and I am learning that it takes some time for our bodies to readjust.

You must permanently change your lifestyle if you want your weight loss to be permanent. You can do it!

Have you measured? You may not be losing pounds, but may be losing inches. How are your clothes fitting and have you lost inches?
