I am currently 256 and my PCP says that at best I will reach 180...

with my gastric bypass surgery. I was thinking more along the lines of 150-160. Does this sound right? Is he just not optimistic or is he preparing me for the least amount that I can lose and if I lose more, great? According to my height, optimal weight is 130. At the weight 180 I would still be 50 pounds overweight. Thanks for your insight!
