I know this gets old, but ... How much were/are you eating at 7weeks post-op?

I have always felt that I could eat too much. Like for dinner I had chicken Cordon bleu with black beans and mashed potatoes. I didn't eat all of the chicken, most of the mashed pot, and no beans. My surgery was on May 30. 2003, and I have lost 265-225=40 pounds. Nine of those pounds were lost before surgery. I am scared I won't get to goat of 135 at this rate. How does this surgery work, if I can eat this much. I exercise 40 min. cardio 3-4 times a week, and drink mostly Crystal Light. Do I need to switch back to plain water? Up protein? Because my weight does seem to plateau a lot. Thanks for the comments. I just want to do everything right, and try to lose the weight is the first 6 mo. But, I know that might not happen. Peace!
