Please tell me this isn't true, AMOS family.......

I was "skimming" the message board last night and could swear I read where someone posted that their surgeon said the most a female would lose is 85 lbs. with the WLS. Please tell me this isn't true. I've lost 75 lbs. since November 2nd, '01 but I also have another 75 to go. Is this a realistic goal? I know the weight loss has slowed down, but my goal IS a realistic one, right? Everyone is different, correct? How could a surgeon/doctor latch a magic number like "85 lbs." into the issue? This got me down. P/S A friend and her family ordered Chinese last night and brought me a taste of everything. I tired, and man, did I get ill. I'm still not ready to eat normally, guess I never will be. The dog ate well.
