I am 7 1/2 weeks post op, and a slow loser. Will I reach my goal?

I started at 255 and 5'6" at my consult, and on the day of surgery was 248. I am now 211 1/2. I lost the majority of the weight in the beginning, and the last few weeks have been slowing down to around 2 to 3 pounds a week. At this rate, I'd like to know from those of you who are long term post ops, what's the likelihood that I will reach my goal weight of the low 140's? I am ready to wait, but would kinda like to know what the odds are. I eat under 900 calories a day, drink 7-8 cups of water/liquid, and exercise 3x a week. Thanks!
